To solve a problem like this, we need to start with the innermost parenthesis. Doing that, we get to 4+1, evaluating it giving us 5. This turns our expression into 5 x {3 x [9 - 5]} + 20 ÷ 4 x 2.
Now, the innermost parenthesis is 9-5. Evaluating that gives us 4. Our expression is now 5 x {3 x 4} + 20 ÷ 4 x 2.
Once again, we go to the innermost parenthesis and evaluate whatever is there. This turns our expression into <span>5 x 12 + 20 ÷ 4 x 2.
Now, we can simply use order of operations to compute that the value of the expression is equal to 70. </span>

Answer:
First "order of operations" mistake: step 2
First arithmetic mistake: step 4
Step-by-step explanation:
As we understand Rena's work, she wants to simplify ...

for x = -1 and y = 2.
Her work seems to be ...
<u>Step 1</u>

<u>Step 2</u>

<u>Step 3</u>

<u>Step 4</u>

_____
So, the first arithmetic error is in Step 4. However, the order of operations requires exponents be evaluated first. Doing that makes step 2 look like ...

We expect your answer is supposed to be Step 4.
He spilled 1 and 5/8 cups because 2-3/8= 1 5/8. To check that, use 1 5/8+ 3/8= 2 cups.
