Question

Evaluate: (35 + 25)2 + 3

A) 123
B) 98

Answer 1

`\huge \boxed{123}`

Explanation:

This question is about the order of operations. The order of operations stands for parenthesis, exponent, multiply, divide, add, and subtract.

Do parenthesis.

`\displaystyle (35+25)=60`

`\displaystyle 60*2+3`

Multiply from left to right.

`\displaystyle 60*2=120`

Add numbers from left to right.

`\displaystyle 120+3=123`

123 is the correct answer.

Answer 2

A 123 because 35+25 is in parentheses so it must be done first giving you 60 which when multiplied by 2 gives you 120 plus 3 giving you 123
