Example Word Problem
Maria bought 3 boxes of pencils, each
containing 8 pencils at P2 per pencil. She
also bought 2 notebooks at P5 each. If she
gives the cashier P100, how much change
should she receive?
Guide Questions:
1. How many pencils are there?
2. How many operations do you think there are
in this problem?
3. Can you solve this problem using only one
numerical expression?
To solve this problem, it is important to
understand the order of operations and the
concept of GEMDAS.
What
is
Then we add
?
and subtract
from left to
right.
This means that in simplifying numerical
expressions, the operation one should
grouping symbols work on first is the Grouping symbols
(parenthesis, brackets, or braces), then
aⁿ exponents Exponents, Multiplication or Division
next, and lastly Addition or Subtraction.
