1. The problem is to evaluate the expression $66 \times 1100 \div 100$ and understand why the result is not 726. 2. The formula used here is basic arithmetic involving multiplication and division. The order of operations states that multiplication and division are performed from left to right. 3. Calculate step-by-step: - First, multiply $66$ by $1100$: $$66 \times 1100 = 72600$$ - Then divide the result by $100$: $$72600 \div 100 = 726$$ 4. So, the correct evaluation of $66 \times 1100 \div 100$ is $726$, not a different number. 5. The confusion might arise if the operations are not done in the correct order or if the expression is misread. Final answer: $$726$$
