To answer this question, let’s figure it out for ourselves.
Use PEMDAS, or order of operations, to properly solve it.
Since there are no Parenthesis, we can skip that step.
However, exponents are an option, evaluate the exponents.
3*3*3=27
2*2=4
Our equation is now 27+20/4
Now, multiply and divide from left to right. There is no multiplication, so just solve for division.
20/4=5
Our equation is now 27+5
Finally, add to solve.
32 is the answer.
Hope this helps!

3^3=27

3x3=9 9x3=27

2^2=4

2x2=4

27+20 divided by 4

Divide first!

20 divided by 4 equals 5

5x4=20

Then add!

27+4= 31

Answer is 31
