Evaluate the expression

Step-by-step explanation:

So we have the expression:

Recall the order of operations or PEMDAS:

P: Operations within parentheses must be done first. On a side note, do parentheses before brackets.

E: Within the parentheses, if exponents are present, do them before all other operations.

M/D: Multiplication and division next, whichever comes first.

A/S: Addition and subtraction next, whichever comes first.

(Note: This is how the order of operations is traditionally taught and how it was to me. If this is different for you, I do apologize. However, the answer should be the same.)

Thus, we should do the operations inside the parentheses first. Therefore:

The parentheses is:

Square the 6 and the 4:

Do the operations from left to right. 36 divided by 3 is 12. 12 times 4 is 48:

Therefore, the original equation is now:

Multiply with the brackets:

Subtract with the brackets:

Two negatives make a positive. Add:

Therefore:
