Section A
*Underline the first part to calculate (Multiplication or Division), then solve.*
1) $9 + 4 \times 6$
- First, do $4 \times 6 = 24$.
- Then, $9 + 24 = 33$.
Answer: 33
2) $6 - 10 \div 5$
- First, do $10 \div 5 = 2$.
- Then, $6 - 2 = 4$.
Answer: 4
3) $4 \times 21 \div 3$
- Since multiplication and division are equal partners, go from left to right.
- First, do $4 \times 21 = 84$.
- Then, $84 \div 3 = 28$.
Answer: 28
