“Use Your Brain, Not a Calculator: The Power of Mental Math and Order of Operations”

Sure! First, let’s solve the equation shown in the image using the correct order of operations (PEMDAS/BODMAS):

Given:
50 + 50 - 25 × 0 + 2 + 2

Step-by-step solution:

  1. Multiplication first:

    25×0=025 × 0 = 0

    Now the expression becomes:

    50+50−0+2+250 + 50 – 0 + 2 + 2

  2. Now perform addition and subtraction from left to right:

    • 50+50=10050 + 50 = 100

    • 100−0=100100 – 0 = 100

    • 100+2=102100 + 2 = 102

    • 102+2=104102 + 2 = 104

Final Answer: 104
