Ask the student a question, and give any hints about how they should answer this part.

$\displaystyle \simplify[all,!collectNumbers,!simplifyFractions]{{a1}+ {a2}{a3}+{a4}/{a5}}=\;$ Unnamed gap

Advice

Remember the order of operations

B Brackets

O pOwers

D Division

M Multiplication

A Addition

S Subtraction

First do the calculations $\displaystyle \simplify[all,!simplifyFractions]{{a4}/{a5}={a4/a5}}$ and $\simplify[all,!collectNumbers]{{a2}*{a3}={a2*a3}}$ .

and then we get

$\begin{align} \simplify[all,!collectNumbers,!simplifyFractions]{{a1}+ {a2}{a3}+{a4}/{a5}}&=\simplify[all,!collectNumbers,!simplifyFractions]{{a1}+ {a2*a3}+{a4/a5}}\\&=\var{ans1}\end{align}$

First do the calculations $\displaystyle \simplify[all,!collectNumbers,!simplifyFractions]{{b1}/{b2}={b1/b2}} \text{ and } \simplify[all,!collectNumbers]{{b3}({b4}+{b5})={b3}{b4+b5}={b3*(b4+b5)}}$

and then we get

$\begin{align} \simplify[all,!collectNumbers,!simplifyFractions]{{b1}/{b2}+{b3}*({b4}+{b5}){b6}+{b7}}&=\simplify[all,!collectNumbers]{{b1/b2}+{b3*(b4+b5)}+{b7}}\\&=\var{ans2}\end{align}$

First do the calculations $\displaystyle \simplify[all,!collectNumbers,!simplifyFractions]{({c4}+{c5})/{c6}={c4+c5}/{c6}={(c4+c5)/c6}} \text{ and } \simplify[all,!collectNumbers]{{c1}({c2}+{c3})={c1}{c2+c3}={c1*(c2+c3)}}$

and then we get

$\begin{align} \simplify[all,!collectNumbers,!simplifyFractions]{{c1}*({c2}+{c3})+({c4}+{c5})/{c6}}&=\simplify[all,!collectNumbers]{{c1*(c2+c3)}+{(c4+c5)/c6}}\\&=\var{ans3}\end{align}$
