Video Solution

Solution Steps

00:06 Let's solve this expression together!
00:09 First, remember to solve what's in the parentheses.
00:13 Next, do multiplication and division, before addition and subtraction.
00:24 Now, let's finish solving the expression.
00:28 And that's how we find the solution! Great job!

Step-by-Step Solution

Let's simplify this expression while following the order of operations which states that exponents come before multiplication and division, which come before addition and subtraction, and that parentheses come before all of them,

Therefore we'll start by simplifying the expression inside the parentheses and perform the subtraction within them, then since division comes before subtraction, we'll first perform the division operation and then the subtraction operation

10−(10−4):2=10−6:2=10−3=7 10-(10-4):2= \\ 10-6:2= \\ 10-3=\\ 7 Therefore the correct answer is answer D.
