 14 × (7-2)² ÷ 10
Mr. Baggaley writes the expression above on the board. A student said the first step is to evaluate the exponent. The student writes what her answer below.
4 × (7-2)² ÷ 10
= 4 x 7-2²  ÷ 10
= 4 x 7-4 ÷ 10
= 28-4 ÷ 10
= 24 ÷ 10
= 2.4
Explain the student's mistake, and then evaluate the expression.

• The student evaluated the parenthesis incorrectly. = 10
• The student divided first. = 24
• The student ate too much and got a tummy ache. = Don't eat easy cheese on ice cream!
• The student evaluated the expression correctly. = 24
