Remove 50 and y from the equation for now. <span>[(4·5)-(36÷2)] </span> Solve what is in the parenthesis first: 4*5 = (20) 36/2 = (18) Now you should have <span>[(20)-(18)]. </span><span>[(20)-(18)] = 2 </span> Now you can add 50 back to the back to the beginning of the equation. 50÷<span>[(20)-(18)] </span>50<span>÷2 </span>25
