  1. first:

    1/2 x 16= 8

    Do this because of order of operations.(please excuse my dear aunt sally)

    second:

    8 + 8 = 16

    third:

    Done


  2. It can have 2 answers

    1st is:8+1/2(16)-5

    or

    8+1/32-5

    =8.03125-5

    =3.03125

  3. 11 is the answer

    mutiplaction and division go together and if there is more than one multiplacation fact in the problem then work from left to right just like you read it...

    same thing with additon and subtraction
