Arithmetic Operations with Parentheses

The video tutorial explains how to make equations true using parentheses and basic arithmetic operations. It demonstrates solving two equations: the first by forming 30 using subtraction and division to equal five, and the second by forming zero using multiplication and addition to equal six. The tutorial concludes by encouraging students to solve additional equations on their own.

How can you make the equation 30 divided by 6 equal to 5 using parentheses?

• 36 - (6 / 6)

• (36 / 6) - 6

• 36 / (6 - 6)

• (36 - 6) / 6

What operation is used to form zero in the second example?

• Division

• Multiplication

• Subtraction

• Addition

In the second example, what is added to zero to make the equation true?

• Twelve

• Nine

• Six

• Three

What is the result of multiplying zero by six in the second example?

• Zero

• One

• Six

• Thirty-six

What is the next step after forming zero in the second example?

• Multiply by six

• Divide by six

• Add six
