The above question is about BODMAS or PEMDAS. Before solve this question you have understand about BODMAS and PEMDAS. Also study about what is difference between BODMAS, BEDMAS, BIDMAS, PEDMAS and PEMDAS?
We will solve this question by differenct methods. Take a look on question statement. We can see there are division and multiplication signs so we have to solve division and multiplication sign first.
1st Method by BODMAS
3 - 3 × 2 ÷ 6 (Solve the division 2 ÷ 6 = 1 ÷ 3) = 3 - 3 ÷ 3 (Solve the division again 3 ÷ 3 = 1) = 3 - 1 (Now solve the subtraction) = 2
2nd Method again BODMAS
3 - 3 × 2 ÷ 6 (Convert the division sign into multiplication ) 1 = 3 - 3 × 2 × --- 6 (Solve the 3 × 2 × 1 / 6 by cutting we get 1) (Also notice that dont miss the negative sign) = 3 - 1 (Now solve the subtraction) = 2
3rd Method by PEMDAS
3 - 3 × 2 ÷ 6 (Solve multiplication and division from left to right) = 3 - 6 ÷ 6 = 3 - 1 (Now solve the subtraction) = 2
