the answer..... I got was 18

Answer 2

For this case according to the order PEMDAS we have:

P: Perform the parenthesis calculations

E: Simplify exponential expressions

MD: Multiplications and divisions from left to right

AS: Addition and subtraction from left to right.

We have:

23 + 5 * 10÷2-33 + (11-8) =

23 + 5 * 10÷2-33 + 3 =

23 + 50÷2-33 + 3 =

23 + 25-33 + 3 =

48-33 + 3 =

15 + 3 =

18

Thus, the value of the expression is 18
