Answer:

I believe the answer is 61.

Explanation:

To make this problem a bit easier, use PEMDAS. PEMDAS is an acronym for the words parenthesis, exponents, multiplication, division, addition, subtraction. Given two or more operations in a single expression, the order of the letters in PEMDAS tells you what to calculate first, second, third and so on, until the calculation is complete.

Therefore, you'd start by multiplying 6 times (9+2). You'll get 66. Then, you subtract 5 from 66 and your answer should be 61.
