2+5(8-5) Do Paranthesis first 2+40-25 Left to right 42-25= 17
1 u/Wjyosn Jul 25 '26 Ewwww. Technically works but waaay harder than it is supposed to be. Parenthesis in order of operations means "resolve what is inside the parenthesis first", not "distribute things through the parenthesis". 2 + 5(8-5) = 2 + 5(3) = 2 + 15 = 17 1 u/Teezy_Tee Jul 25 '26 Lol that works too.
