What is 16 x 56 plus 11?

Answer 1

16 x 56 + 11

Remember ,when no brackets are indicated, ALWAYS do the multiplication/division first, then the addition/subtraction.

So for above we multiply 16 x 56 first

16 x 56 = 896

Then add '11'

896 + 11 = 907 The answer!!!!

The INCORRECT method is 56 + 11 = 67

67 X 16 = 1072 (Notice the different answers).

However, if it is written as 16 X (56 + 11) , then the rule is DO INSIDE THE BRACKETS FIRST. 16 X 67 = 1072

Answer 2

16 x 56 + 11 = 907
