Absolutely, it is correct.
[tex]\boxed{ \ 60 \div 5 (7 - 5) = 24 \ }[/tex]
In the 1500s the specific rules of the order of operation were promptly issued. The order of these workings states which processes take precedence (as a key priority) before which other operations.
Operation priorities are as follows.
Let's implement the rule.
[tex]\boxed{ \ 60 \div 5 (7 - 5) = \ ? \ }[/tex]
Subtract 7 by 5 in parentheses.
[tex]\boxed{ \ 60 \div 5 (2) = \ ? \ }[/tex]
Properly apply rule number 3 from the priority operation above. Initially, we have to divide 60 by 5.
[tex]\boxed{ \ 12(2) = \ ? \ }[/tex]
Continuing with multiplication 12 by 2 proves the exact result.
[tex]\boxed{ \ 12 \times 2 = 24 \ }[/tex]
Thus, this equation is correct.
[tex]\boxed{ \ 60 \div 5 (7 - 5) = 24 \ }[/tex]
Note:
What is the result if we don't follow operation priorities? Let's see.
At this crucial point.
[tex]\boxed{ \ 60 \div 5 (2) = \ ? \ }[/tex]
We decide to multiply 5 by 2, even though there are no parentheses from them, only parentheses for 2.
[tex]\boxed{ \ 60 \div 5 \times 2 = \ ? \ }[/tex]
[tex]\boxed{ \ 60 \div 10 = 6 \ }[/tex]
[tex]\boxed{ \ 60 \div 5 (7 - 5) = 6 \ }[/tex]
That's what happens if we don't follow operating priorities.
Unless the problem like this:
[tex]\boxed{ \ 60 \div (5 (7 - 5)) = 6 \ }[/tex]
[tex]\boxed{ \ 60 \div (5 (2)) = 6 \ }[/tex]
[tex]\boxed{ \ 60 \div 10 = 6 \ }[/tex]
Thus, the difference must be considered. Consequently, follow the priority of the operation and look at the problem in detail.
