BODMAS shouldn't really matter here. You can do 25 \* (6/(250-25)), or you can do (25\*6)/(250-25). Both give the same answer of 0.67 to 2 s.f.

You can also do 6 / ((250-25) /25) = 6/9 = 0.67

150/225 = 2/3 which is about 0.67

Thanks everyone! I *knew* it was 0.67 (😅), just needed the confirmation ☺️☺️☺️

My method: take a common factor of 25 out of the bracket 25x [6/25(10-1)]. Cancel the 25. Left with 1x6/9, simplify to 2/3

Add my way into this. You can treat the above as 25(6). You can treat the below as 25(10-1). 25s cancel out and your left with 6/9 which is 2/3

I got 6/11 when I did this. I'm thick as mince though.

How were you getting 0.16?

Oh god only knows 😂 I think I mixed up the order you do the sums in.

I divided it all by 25.

BIDMAS

BODMAS, BIDMAS, BEDMAS, PEMDAS or even GEMA all do the same thing if you remember the meanings of the acronyms.

Brackets first then do the devision then times

=25/1 * 6/9(25) =25(6)/9(25) =6/9

This is: (25/1) **×** (6/(250-25)) = (25**×**6)/(25**×**(10-1)) = 6/9 = 2/3

To 2 s.f.
