Answer:
960
Step-by-step explanation:
6[8+8](3+7)
Parentheses first
6[16] (10)
Then multiply from left to right
96*10
960
Is this multiple choice? I know that a is correct.

Method A: 7.6666.... = 7 + 0.6666... = 7 + 2/3 = 21/3 + 2/3 = 23/3
Method B: 10(7.666...) - 1(7.666...) = 76.666... - 7.666... = 69.000...
(10 - 1)(7.666...) = 69
7.666... = 69/9 = 23/3
