1. Solve the following using the BODMAS rule.

(a)
[tex]\[
\begin{aligned}
220 & -70 \div 35-49 \times 2 \\
& = 220 - 2 - 49 \times 2 \\
& = 220 - 2 - 98 \\
& = 220 - 100 \\
& = 120
\end{aligned}
\][/tex]

(b)
Solve the following using the BODMAS rule.


Sagot :

Certainly! Let's break down the given expression step by step using the BODMAS rule (Brackets, Orders - i.e., powers and square roots, Division and Multiplication, Addition and Subtraction):

### For part (a):

Given expression:
[tex]\[ 220 - 70 \div 35 - 49 \times 2 \][/tex]

1. Division first:
[tex]\[ 70 \div 35 = 2 \][/tex]

2. Substitute the division result back into the expression:
[tex]\[ 220 - 2 - 49 \times 2 \][/tex]

3. Multiplication next:
[tex]\[ 49 \times 2 = 98 \][/tex]

4. Substitute the multiplication result back into the expression:
[tex]\[ 220 - 2 - 98 \][/tex]

5. Subtraction last (left to right):
[tex]\[ 220 - 2 = 218 \][/tex]
[tex]\[ 218 - 98 = 120 \][/tex]

So, the final result for part (a) is:
[tex]\[ 120 \][/tex]

### For part (b):

Please provide the expression for part (b), so I can break it down step by step using the BODMAS rule similarly.
