Order of operations PEMDAS parenthasees exponents multiply or divide add or subtract remember to go back to the front after completing each row when doing parntasees, work inside to out
so
2(3(4²+1))-2³
innermost parenthasees 4²+1 exponent first 4²=16 now 16+1=17
now we has
2(3(17))-2³ technically it doesn't matter if you do the parenthasees first or exponent actually, the parentahsees could be considerd multiplication so we do exponent first
2³=2*2*2=8
nowe we gots
2(3(17))-8 multiply, inner to outer ( just because of parenthsees, actually it doesn't matter)
