This question tests SSAT Middle Level skills: correct use of the order of operations to evaluate expressions. The order of operations is a fundamental concept in mathematics, dictating the sequence in which operations should be performed within an expression. It typically follows the PEMDAS/BODMAS rule: Parentheses/Brackets, Exponents/Orders, Multiplication and Division (left to right), and Addition and Subtraction (left to right). In the given expression, parentheses indicate that the addition inside them should be completed first, followed by division and then multiplication left to right. Choice A is correct because it accurately reflects the evaluated result of 2.4 × 5 = 12 using the correct order of operations. Choice B is incorrect due to dividing incorrectly without parentheses priority. To help students, emphasize the importance of following the order of operations strictly and using mnemonic devices like PEMDAS to remember the sequence. Practice with varied examples to reinforce understanding and address common pitfalls such as ignoring parentheses or misprioritizing operations.
