Insert parentheses to make the equality a true statement.
12+3*8-8÷4=16

12+[(3*8-8)÷4]=16

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expression is:

12+3*8-8÷4=16

Now to insert parenthesis in this statement to make it equality statement we will follow the rule of BODMAS:

BODMAS stands for Bracket, Of, Division,Multiplication,Addition, Subtraction.

It explains the order of expression to solve an expression. If an expression contains (), {}, [], we have to solve or simplify the brackets first and then division, multiplication,addition and subtraction from left to right.

Now take an example of the given statement and place parenthesis:

12+3*8-8÷4=16

12+[(3*8-8)÷4]=16

According to BODMAS rule simplify the terms inside () completely and then [ ].

12+[(24-8)÷4]=16

12+[16÷4]=16

When we divide 16 by 4, it gives the answer 4.

12+ 4 =16

16 = 16

Hence we have made the statement true by inserting parenthesis in order. 12+[(3*8-8)÷4]=16

10.416 meters per second

step-by-step explanation:

distance=1 00 meters

time= 9.6 seconds in decimal form or 9 3/5 as a mixed number

average speed= 100/9.6

=10.416 meters per second or 10 52/125 as a mixed number.
