The Operation Team
Storyboard Text
- THE OPERATION TEAM
- Addition, can you complete multiplication tables for me? Tired of night-shifts
- Team, get on operation. A new problem just arrived!
- Finally, we get a tea break, there's so much H.W nowadays, no break for us!
- THE DISCUSSION BEGINS...
- There are 2 divisions!
- Multiplication should go 1st! I am good at complex calculations *smirks*
- 36 / 9 x 2 + 5 - 12 / 2
- I think Addition & I can handle this! After all, Multiplication is repeated addition and Division is repeated subtraction...
- Let's divide the work! Let's each take a part of the expression and solve
- THE FIRST ATTEMPT
- Umm...18 / 11 ?
- Yes! This is the right way!
- Incorrect!! Multiplication, go & get some SLEEP!
- 36 / 9 x 2 + 5 - 12 / 2= 36 / 18 + 5 - 12 / 2= 36 / 23 - 12 / 2= 36 / 11 / 2= 36 / 2 / 11= 18 / 11
- Do we need to contact the Decimal Team now?
- The Operation Team is taking a break when a new problem arrives.
- ANOTHER ATTEMPT
- Let me show you!
- 36 / 9 x 2 + 5 - 12 / 2= 36 / 9 x 2 - 7 / 2= 36 / 18 - 7 / 2= 36 / 11 / 2
- Multiplication tries to solve the problem his way.
- BRACKETS AND ORDER TO THE RESCUE
- The problem can be solved by DMAS: Division, Multiplication, Addition and Subtraction...Of course with brackets involved!
- Hello Operation Team! I've brought Order with me as well to help with sequencing the operations...& in case you were dealing with surds
- The Operation Team is unsure of Multiplication's answer.
- THE PROBLEM IS SOLVED!
- It's called the BODMAS Rule! It helps order operations, solving the expressions in the brackets 1st & then DMAS
- 36 / 9 x 2 + 5 - 12 / 2= (36 / 9) x 2 + 5 - (12 / 2)= (4 x 2) + 5 - 6= 8 + 5 - 6= 7
- I think we must call Brackets, she could help us as she is a senior member in the Algebra Team!
- Subtraction tries to solve it his way.
- The order matters Multiplication! 36 / 11 / 2 is the answer!
- That's what I arrived at too!
- Addition just loves 'adding' new members to the team!
- The Operation Team contact Brackets and Order to help them with the problem.
- 36 / 9 x 2 + 5 - 12 / 2
- The problem is solved using the BODMAS rule.
- Wow! The problem is solved! We'll keep this in mind henceforth! Thank you!
