Please Excuse My Dear Aunt Sally. In order: Parenthesis, Exponents, Multiplication, Division, Addition, Subtraction. I only see Subtraction, Multiplication, and Addition. First do the multiplying, then the adding, then the subtracting.
The answer is 7.0 -
Wait.. not donut... Pizza!
donuts and pizza are the answer to many things, but not this0 -
Properly grouped, (9-5) + (5x0) + 3 = 4 + 0 + 3 = 7
People really get this wrong?0 -

PEMDAS is the order of operations. parentheses, exponents, multiplication, division, addition and subtraction.
so, you do the multiplication first 5x0=0
that makes the problem 9-5+3.
when you get to addition and subtraction you work the problem left to right, 9-5 = 4. then 4+3 = 7.
IF you chose to do addition first, you need to be sure to take the symbol in front of the number with it, thus making the problem 9+ (-5) + 3 which, is still 7.
it's not 0 because the whole equation isn't multiplied by 0, only 5.
it's not 1, because when you do the addition first, it's not 5+3, it's -5+3 which is -2, and 9 + (-2) is 7.
it's not 3, because you don't do the problem left to right, you have to do the multiplication first.
answers of 9 and 12 kind of confuse me
and answers of 7 make me happy.0 -

But "maths" should be "math."
Thanks for asking!
It's actually called "maths" in Great Britain. I thought it was weird at first too.
Former math teacher here. It's 7.0
