Answer key: Basic worksheet

1. Result: 16.25
1. Read the expression using the order of operations: brackets, powers, × and ÷, then + and −
  $16 + 1 × (6 − 4) ÷ 8$
2. Subtract the second number from the first
  $6 - 4$ $= 2$
3. Multiply the two numbers
  $1 \times 2$ $= 2$
4. Divide the first number by the second
  $2 \div 8$ $= 0.25$
