What is 12-12*12+12?

What is the answer to 12-12*12+12?

12-12*12+12 = -120

Whenever you are dealing with any mathematical operation just remember “PEDMAS” and proceed accordingly.

Using PEDMAS means that the order to solve an arithmetic expression is Parenthesis → Exponents → Addition / Subtraction → Multiplication / Division.

We want to solve this expression: 12-12*12+12"?

In this case we don't have neither parenthesis nor exponents. So, “PEDMAS” we get:

12 - 12 × 12 + 12 = ?

= 12 - 144 + 12 (multiplication)

= 12 -132 (addition)

= -120 (subtraction)

Thus,

12 - 12 × 12 + 12 = -120 (answer)

The most common mnemonics for remembering the order of operations are:

PEMDAS - Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication, Division, Addition, Subtraction.

BEDMAS - Brackets, Exponents, Division, Multiplication, Addition, Subtraction

BODMAS - Brackets, Of or Order, Division, Multiplication, Addition, Subtraction.

GEMDAS - Grouping Symbols - brackets (){}, Exponents, Multiplication, Division, Addition, Subtraction.
