3 Copy these calculations, inserting brackets to make the answers
correct.
a 8 x 2 + 3 = 40 b 9–7x3+1=7
8 x (2 + 3) = 40 (9 – 7) x 3 + 1 = 7
c 15 – 8 – 3 = 10 d 9 x 10 – 8 x 2 = 36
15 – (8 – 3) = 10 9 x (10 – 8) x 2 = 36
4 Find the missing numbers in these calculations
a (3 + ) x 5 = 35 b 18 ÷ 2 = 2
4 3
c 8 ÷ ( + 4) + 1 = 2 d 4 x 3 + x 2 = 26
