Before we get started, it is good to remember PEMDAS - the acronym that tells you the order to carry out equations.
P = parentheses
E = exponents
M = multiplication
D = division
A = addition
S = subtraction
Knowing this, we should start by doing the equations <em>within </em>each parentheses.

So we did the addition and subtraction pieces within each group leaving us with the above equation. Now let's multiply:

20 is the answer.
Answer:
17x^2+31x+3
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
3x(x2 + 4)
Then use the distributive property
SO the final answer would be: 3x^3 +12x
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: 6
Step-by-step explanation: DE is 4+2 so EF would be the same if it is equal.
Answer:
1 7/8
Step-by-step explanation:
3/8 * 5/1 = 15/8
<-- First multiply 3/8 by 5
----------------------------------------------
15/8 = 1 with a remainder of 7
<-- Then convert 15/8 to a mixed number by dividing 15 by 8
15/8 = 1 7/8
