remember PEMDAS or order of operations

it's the order in which to simplify stuff

P: parenthasees (or grouping symbols like brackets or such), remember to work inside to out

E: exponents (includes square roots since they are fractional exponents)

M & D: multtiplication and divions, I do whichever comes first since division is just multiplication by a fraction

A & S: addition and subtraction, I do whichever comes first since subtraction is addition of a negative


[(30+6)-30] / 9 * 2

parenthases first, do innermost first

(30+6) is innermost parnthaees

no exponents or multipilcation or division so we add to get 36

[36-32] / 9 * 2

simplify parenthasees/brackets

[36-32] is subtraction, so 4

4 / 9 * 2

division

4/9=0.444444444444444444

0.444444444444*2=0.888888888888888 or 8/9


answer is 8/9 or 0.88888888888 which is none of the options for some reason
