[00:00:00]What is the value of the expression 3 + 75 / (6 - 3) and multiplied by 5 ^ 2?

[00:00:12]Which option do you think is the correct answer to this question?

[00:00:15]At first glance, this question looks very easy, but it confuses almost everyone.

[00:00:22]Let's go step by step and solve it together.

[00:00:25]Many people, when solving this question, first go to the expression 3 + 75 and instead of this expression, they write 78 / (6 - 3) and instead of parentheses, they multiply by 5 ^ 2.

[00:00:39]In the next step, they go to the expression inside the parentheses and simplify this expression to 78 / 3 multiplied by 5 ^ 2.

[00:00:49]Then, they perform the division between 78 and 3 and instead of this expression, they write 26 multiplied by 5 ^ 2.

[00:00:59]In the final step, they go to the expression 5 ^ 2 and simplify this expression to 26 multiplied by 25, which ultimately gives them the answer 650.

[00:01:11]Then, without any hesitation, they quickly say that option D is the correct answer to this question.

[00:01:19]However, it's not the correct answer to this question.

[00:01:23]Also, some other people, when solving this question, first go to the expression inside the parentheses and instead of this expression, they write 3 + 75 / 3 multiplied by 5 ^ 2.

[00:01:37]In the next step, they go to the exponent 5 ^ 2 and simplify this expression to 3 + 75 / 3 multiplied by 25.

[00:01:48]Then, they perform the multiplication between 3 and 25 because they believe multiplication has higher priority than division.

[00:01:57]So, instead of this expression, they write 3 + 75 / 75.

[00:02:03]And the next step, they perform the division between 75 and 75 because they think division has priority over addition.

[00:02:13]So, they simplify this expression to 3 + 1, which ultimately gives them the answer four.

[00:02:19]And immediately, they conclude that option B is the correct answer to this question.

[00:02:26]However, this answer is absolutely wrong.

[00:02:30]All right. Now, let me explain the step by step how to solve this expression correctly.

[00:02:36]As you can see on the screen, in this expression, first we have an addition sign, then a division sign, followed by parentheses, then a multiplication, and finally exponent.

[00:02:48]To solve this question, we must follow the PEMDAS rule. In this rule, P stands for parentheses, E stands for exponent, M stands for multiplication, D stands for division, A stands for addition, and S stands for subtraction.

[00:03:06]We must follow the order of operations a step by step from top to bottom.

[00:03:10]Okay, let's start with the parentheses first because parentheses have the highest priority compared to the other operations.

[00:03:18]So, instead of this expression, we can write 3 + 75 / 3 multiplied by 5 is 1.

[00:03:27]And the next step, we go to the exponent because exponent, after parentheses, has higher priority than the other operations.

[00:03:35]So, this equation simplify to 3 + 75 / 3 multiplied by 25.

[00:03:43]All right. Now, it's time to perform the division and multiplication because multiplication and division have higher priority than addition.

[00:03:52]However, we must pay close attention that multiplication and division have equal precedence.

[00:03:58]In this case, the best thing to do is to start from the left of the expression performing division and multiplication as we go.

[00:04:05]So, we are starting with the division between 75 and 3. And instead of this expression, we can write 3 + 25 * 25.

[00:04:15]In the next step, we go to the multiplication between 25 and 25 because multiplication has higher priority than addition.

[00:04:25]So, this expression simplifies to 3 + 625, which ultimately gives us the answer 628.

[00:04:33]Therefore, option C is the correct answer to this question.
