Here is your answer:

In order to solve this equation you need to use PEMDAS, and you would see that  P goes first, which means the "(9 - 8) goes first" because P stands for parentheses.

The answer should look like this:

  • [tex](9-8) \times 5[/tex]
  • Using PEMDAS you will see that P goes first:
  • [tex]9-8=1[/tex]
  • [tex]1 \times 5[/tex]
  • [tex]1 \times 5 = 5[/tex]
  • [tex]=5[/tex]

Hope this helps!

The order of operation goes in;

P - Parentheses

E - Exponent

M - Multiplication

D - Division

A - Addition

S - Subtraction


So, the order of operation that would go in the equation, would be parentheses.
