8 times ( 18 divides 6 )

24

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve inside of the parentheses first.

18/6=3

Then, multiply it by 8.

3x8=24

That's your answer!

In case you didn't know, there's an order you use to solve these types of questions called the order of operations. You might recognize it as the acronym PEMDAS. PEMDAS is an acronym that stands for the words parentheses, exponents, multiplication, division, addition, subtraction. For example, using the order of operations, the first thing you do is solve inside of parentheses, if there are any. In the problem above, there were parentheses, so that's why we divided inside of it first before multiplying!

Hope you understood...have a wonderful day!! c:

there are lots of ways.   pick's theorem tells us if the vertices are lattice points the area a is

a = b/2 + i - 1

where b is the number of boundary lattice points and i is the number of interior lattice points.

in the figure i count b=16, i=50 so

a = 8 + 50 - 1 = 57

let's try the shoelace formula.   the area is half the sum of the cross products of the sides.  

a(-2,6)   -2(2)-6(-5) = 26

b(-5,2)   -5(-3) - 2(-2) = 19

c(-2,-3) -2(-3) - (-3)(4) = 18

d(4,-3)   4(3) - (-3)(5) = 27

e(5,3)   5(3) - 3(1) = 12

f(1,3)     1(6) - 3(-2) = 12

a(-2,6)

each of the cross products is twice the area of the triangle with the associated side and one vertex the origin. so the area of abo=26/2=13.

area = (1/2) (26 + 19 +   18 + 27 + 12 + 12) = 57

that checks!

answer: all the values are within because it has a pattern that repeats from -6 to 4.

good luck!
