🔑 Answer Key

1. 3 × 8 - 5 = 24 - 5 = 19 stickers

2. 48 ÷ 6 + 2 = 8 + 2 = 10 pizzas

3. 20 - (2 × 3) + 7 = 20 - 6 + 7 = 21 dollars

4. 100 - (4 × 5) + 15 = 100 - 20 + 15 = 95 points

5. 72 ÷ 8 + 3 = 9 + 3 = 12 boxes

6. 15 + (3 × 15) - 12 = 15 + 45 - 12 = 48 cans

7. (84 ÷ 12) × 12 + 18 = 7 × 12 + 18 = 84 + 18 = 102 apples

8. 25 - (3 × 4) + 10 = 25 - 12 + 10 = 23 points

9. 96 ÷ 8 - 2 = 12 - 2 = 10 books per class

10. (5 × 6) - 8 + 6 = 30 - 8 + 6 = 28 pencils
