Answer: 2???????
It's too short. Write at least 20 characters to explain it well.
Answer:
========================================================
Work Shown:
The answer has been confirmed with WolframAlpha which is basically a calculator app, but does a ton more than any average calculator.
The CAS (computer algebra system) in the app GeoGebra is another tool I use all the time.
Yet another way to confirm the answer is to graph the original expression and the answer as separate functions. You should find they produce the <u>exact</u> same curve. One curve perfectly overlaps the other. This visually verifies the two expressions are the same thing, just written a different way of course.
Let me know if you have any questions about any step. The basic idea I did was to pull out the GCF and then combine like terms.
It would be 25.6 with a dash on top of the number 6
