Answer:
23
Step-by-step explanation:
Follow the PEMDAS order of operations
3 x (6 + 2) - 3 + 4 ÷ 2
Parenthesis (P):
(6 + 2) = (8)
Exponents (E):
none
Multiply/Divided (MD) left to right:
Multiply: 3 x 8 = 24
= 24 - 3 + 4 ÷ 2
Divided: 4 ÷ 2 = 2
= 24 - 3 + 2
Add/Subtract (AS) left to right:
Subtract: 24 - 3 = 21
= 21 + 2
Add: 21 + 2 = 23
