There's the PRECEDENCE RULE even in BODMAS so 3+9=12 then 12-3=9 then finally 9+3=12 final answer 12 for more info on precedence rule check K A STROUD: ENGINEERING MATHEMATICS TEXTBOOK. it appears that Addition comes before Subtraction in BODMAS but in actual sense they are of equal priorities, now the question, which should we do first since they are of equal priority. Addition or Subtraction. the answer is: Do that which comes first but make sure that all you have left is addition and subtraction to do. this similar case exist with Division and Multiplication. they have the same priority. |

ebohstepn:Bros no vex oh, bit u dull sha. Not only u but also to all ur type sayin -3+3=6. How can -3+3 be 6. you no go primary school. Now let me help u with the simply way my teacher taught me in primary school. Assuming you are owing mr A #3( i.e -3 ), and mr B gave u #3 for u to have lunch(since it is ur money lets call it +3). you now remember that you are owing mr A #3. If u decide to pay the debt, pls how much will be left with u. Definitely #0. so u see -3+3=0. 2 Likes |

dearpreye:T I can the reason 61% of candidates failed the last WASC. BODMAS means u solve any arithmetic problem by following this sequence: brackets Of division multiplication addition subtraction. The problem is 3+ 3*3 - 3+3. To solve this using BODMAS the O is also multiplication. Since there are no brackets, Resolve the next operation which is O. 3 + (3*3)- 3+3 3+ 9- 3+3 A is the next operation. A stands for addition. However, you will not perform the first add operation, you will perform the next addition 3 +9 - 6 In the next iteration, apply BODMAS again A comes before S 12 - 6 Perform the subtraction 6 It's very confusing, but when you master BODMAS very well, you understand better. |

xenten:Bro, do me a favour and look up to addition rules in maths and multiplication rules in maths. -3+3 is still =(-3)+(+3)......(addition rules)=0 it is wrong to say -3+3= -6....... it can only be -6 if it is -3(+)-3=... -3-3 peace. |
