Disclaimer:
In the original version of this video, there was an error in the solution to the expression 60 ÷ 5(1+1(1+1)). It was incorrectly solved as 4. The correct answer, following the order of operations (BODMAS), is 36. The error occurred due to a misunderstanding of the precedence of implicit multiplication. We apologize for any confusion this may have caused. Please refer to the following explanation for the correct solution:
1. Parentheses: 60 ÷ 5(1+1(1+1)) is solved first, resulting in 60 ÷ 5(1+1(2))
2. Parentheses: 60 ÷ 5(1+1(2)) gives us 60 ÷ 5(1+2)
3. Next we add 1 and 2 inside parentheses, we get 60 ÷ 5(3)
4. Division: 60 ÷ 5 is performed next, giving 12.
5. Implicit multiplication: 12 x 3 is the final step, resulting in the correct answer of 36.
We encourage viewers to always apply BODMAS correctly to ensure accurate mathematical calculations.
Once again, I apologetic for any confusion caused, and looking for your continue support.
