around the 8 and the 5
17 - (8 - 5) = 14
To correctly solve the expression 17 - 8 - 5 ÷ 14 using the order of operations (PEMDAS/BODMAS), you would first perform the division operation, then subtraction. The correct placement of parentheses to indicate the order of operations would be 17 - (8 - (5 ÷ 14)). This ensures that the division is done before the subtraction.
The parentheses would be placed thus: 27 - (49 / 7 + 12) = 8
Where parentheses can be rearranged and do no change the equation. 5*(8*2)=(8*5)*2
