Question

How do you simplify the expression (2 x 4) plus 7 equals X

Answer 1

The answer is 15 to the question

Answer 2

(2 × 4) + 7 = X

So to simplify, you just need to do everything in the brackets then add 7 to find the final value of X.

2 × 4 = 8

Put 8 back into the first equation

8 + 7 = X

X = 15
