Hi there! The answer is 30.
We need to use PEMDAS to simplify.
P = parenthesis
E = Exponents
M = Multiply
D = Dividing
A = Adding
S = Subtracting
![10(4 * 10 / ( {6}^(2) - {4}^(2) ) + 1)](https://img.qammunity.org/2019/formulas/mathematics/middle-school/u64ionmsjzaim2ofjnawhc1upvu1tc73e0.png)
First find the exponents inside the middlest parenthesis.
![10(4 * 10 / (36 - 16) + 1)](https://img.qammunity.org/2019/formulas/mathematics/middle-school/swmw8dixmffqbacbm1mu3ooakbo15mvk5t.png)
Now add inside the parenthesis.
![10(4 * 10 / 20 + 1)](https://img.qammunity.org/2019/formulas/mathematics/middle-school/nlmw2nnyir2k7olbo1k5j2iklvaowym208.png)
Multiply inside the parenthesis that are left.
![10(40 / 20 + 1)](https://img.qammunity.org/2019/formulas/mathematics/middle-school/kp2jtg5det75i7k7ubgvobxvjckuru0ie0.png)
Divide inside the parenthesis
![10(2 + 1)](https://img.qammunity.org/2019/formulas/mathematics/middle-school/f63aal2bxkjbg4plljd7wqtjh7z1no1a71.png)
Add inside the parenthesis.
![10(3)](https://img.qammunity.org/2019/formulas/mathematics/middle-school/nptctylmrxqrrj7xbnezbrulgos43q8taz.png)
Multiply.
