Answer 1

PEMDAS (parenthesis, exponents, multiplication, division, addition and substraction)



33 + 27.2 - (6.8 + 24) - 3.1
33 + 27.2 - 30.8 - 3.1 --> 60.2
60.2 - 30.8 - 3.1 --> 26.3 <-- final answer

Answer 2

Answer:

26.3

Step-by-step explanation:

33+27.2–(6.8+24)–3.1

Add 33 and 27.2 to get 60.2.

60.2−(6.8+24)−3.1

Add 6.8 and 24 to get 30.8.

60.2−30.8−3.1

Subtract 30.8 from 60.2 to get 29.4.

29.4−3.1

Subtract 3.1 from 29.4 to get 26.3.

26.3
