Which working correctly finds the value of 8 × (5 + 7)?

8 × 12 = 96

8 × 5 + 7 = 47

8 + 5 × 7 = 43

(8 × 5) + 7 = 47

Work out the bracket first: 5 + 7 = 12. Then multiply: 8 × 12 = 96.

Wei Ting says: '48 ÷ 8 × 2 = 48 ÷ 16 = 3.' What mistake did she make?

She is correct

48 ÷ 8 × 2 has no correct answer

Multiplication and division should be worked left to right, not combined first, so 48 ÷ 8 × 2 = 6 × 2 = 12

She should have added instead of dividing

When only multiplication and division appear, work from left to right: 48 ÷ 8 = 6, then 6 × 2 = 12 - not 48 ÷ 16.
