@@kathleendawnhall9130 , How on earth did you get 22? In maths, those divide signs get converted to multiply, and then you just multiply everything. ÷2 = x 0.5 = x(1/2) . You replace the ÷2 , and it 148. You're supposed to get the same answer every time if you substitute ÷2, x0.5 , or x(1/2). All 3 give the same answer of 148. If you get 22, then all 3 of those substitutions should also give you 22. If you get 148 twice and 22 once, then you probably did something wrong to get 22.
@@avibhaganhe got 22 because with the parentheses as indicated he was giving priority to implied multiplication, which is indeed what happens when you get into algebra and beyond.
What I learned is that PEMDAS has a further development. MD & AS are to be considered subgroups and applied sequencially in that subgroup😮 Pretty essential stuff!!
PEMDAS and BODMAS use different words to say exactly the same thing. Neither of them say "do multiplication first" nor "do division first." They both mean "multiplication and division have the same precedence, when you come across either do them from left to right"
I got it right but it was a pure fluke because I use BODMAS and had forgotten (always do) about the D and M being in a group and going from left to right.
@@laurendoe168 One of the many indictments of PEMDAS/BODMAS is that explicit precedence is lost. If the Secret Decoder Ring is not used a PEMDAS-dependent expression becomes twisted. I would hate to be an astronaut and find out the mission planners relied on PEMDAS.
2 *x* 8?? Are you looking for this symbol? *×* It is nothing like *x* and using x where you should be using × is a great way to confuse your students. I see you've already found ÷, surely you can do better than "x" for multiplication.
In the real world you would get a lot of wrong solutions. PEMDAS is not a rule, only a convention used in the 17% of the world that speaks English. There is nothing binding about PEMDAS.

Since a lot of his videos remind us to reread the problem and understand what is being asked before just making assumptions and solving it in my head and selecting the answer, which often leads to careless mistakes and confusion.
That doesn't just look like a variable x. It is a variable x. You can get away with substituting a sanserif x (or at a pinch even a serif one) for a proper multiplication sign ×. (Just as you can get away with using a dash - (or even a hyphen - in place of a minus sign.) As long as it's roman and not italic. You definitely can't do what this video does.
Actually PEMDAS doesn’t matter at all, neither does Orders of Operations. When you multiply the 2 through the parentheses you get 2*10 + 2*16/2 * 8, the 2’s cancel on the division and you get 20 + 16 * 8 = 20 + 128 = 148, which is the only valid answer, no PENDAS required or applicable.
You should NEVER use distribution when there is a division inside the brackets, it can result in the wrong answer. It happens to work here but it won’t always. Example 2(4÷2) Distribute: 2(4÷2)→8÷4=2 Don’t distribute: 2(4÷2)→2*2=4

148. Work inside parentheses first. Division and multiplication are equivalent in priority and are performed left to right. So 16/2=8. Then 8*8=64. Then 64+10=74. Finally multiply 74 by 2 giving us 148.
True. Using "X" as a multiplication symbol does not survive high school in America. Multiplication is most commonly indicated by parentheses: 3(x+2) = 3x+6. BTW: the "dot operator" as in x · y produces a scalar product in advanced mathematics.
Silly math's problems, as this example has exposed, shows that full punctuation is required. Without full punctuation, assumptions are made, leading straight into the error pit. I was taught "full punctuation", meaning checking your answer before committing was easy.
Teachers need to STRESS that the MD are EQUAL operations and if the Division is BEFORE the Multiplication Left to right, you DIVIDE first THEN multiply. Same with the AS. Subtract if it's before an addition.
Never in my wildest dreams could I have guessed that a variable "x" was used to mean "times!" From algebra on up, DOT is used for multiply, not x, but you even ITALICIZED the x, when the other figures are all non-italics. But without any equals sign, it's not an equation, and has no solution.

Completely thrown by the x being multiplication, looks more like a substitution symbol. hence my first answer 20+128x. 🙄 No problem once the x is taken to be multiplication.
I always thought mathematical problems like this one should be written with more parentheses and brackets. (Maybe I missed math class on the day when Order Of Operations was taught.)
Yes they should. And the purpose of this exercise is to teach people how it should be processed so that they would be able to add the parentheses in the proper places.
Good luck with that. If you see an equation in any physics or engineering text, a/bc, and you think the division is done first, you will get it wrong. The multiplication is taken to be in the denominator.
