The value of 3 – 3 ÷ 3:
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 1
The correct answer is Option (1) → 2
By the BODMAS order, division is done before subtraction, whatever their order in the expression.
Division first: \(3\div3=1\)
Then the subtraction: \(3-1=2\)
Working from left to right instead, \((3-3)\div3=0\), gives Option (3); that breaks the order of operations.
