what is 20 divided by 2(5+5)
The correct answer is 1.
Explanation:
The way this is written, everything after the words "divided by" would be calculated first; it is written as though this is a grouping, such as 20/(2(5+5)). We would evaluate the innermost parentheses first; 5+5=10. Then this gives us 210=20 in our parentheses. 20/20 = 1.
Answer: 1
Step-by-step explanation:
Given division problem : \(20\div2(5+5)\)
here, dividend = 20
and divisor = \(2(5+5)=2(10)=20\)
Now, the division problem becomes : \(20\div20\)
Since, we know that \(20\times1=20\)
Therefore, \(20\div20=1\)
Therefore, when we 20 divided by 2(5+5) we get 1 (quotient).
