Answer:
9
Step-by-step explanation:
We have to solve in order to find out if Sam is correct
Remember PEDMAS:
For Multiplication, division and addition, subtraction, do what appears first left to right
Parenthesis
Exponent
Division
Multiplication
Addition
Subtraction
16 - 18 + (2+1)+2^3
Parenthesis first: 2+1 = 3
16 - 18 + 3 + 2^3
Exponent next: 2^3 = 8
Subtraction (it's on the left) : 16-18 = -2
Addition: -2 + 3 = 1
Addition : 1 + 8 = 9
<em>Sam is not correct, the answer is </em><em>9, </em><em>not 16.</em>
Hope this helps :)
Have a great day!
