To solve the equation 45/2 × 4.7 − 4.4 × 6 = 54 correctly, we can add parentheses to adjust the order of operations. After testing combinations, we can use 45/ ( ( 2 × 4.7 ) − ( 4.4 × 6 ) ) to achieve equality with 54. Parentheses help dictate which operations are performed first, leading us to the intended result.
