Evaluate division and multiplication strictly from left to right before moving to subtraction.
Doing multiplication before division or evaluating operations from right to left instead of left to right.
Identify Order of Operations
Apply the BODMAS rule where division and multiplication have equal priority and are evaluated from left to right.
Priority:┬а├╖┬аand┬а├Ч┬а(left┬аto┬аright)тЖТтИТ
Evaluate Division and First Multiplication
First, divide 48 by 6 to get 8, then multiply by 4.
48├╖6├Ч4=8├Ч4=32
Evaluate Second Multiplication
Next, evaluate the second multiplication part.
3├Ч2=6
Final Subtraction
Subtract the two evaluated parts to obtain the final result.
32тИТ6=26
B is correct because evaluating the expression using the BODMAS rule yields 26.
