The answer is 14.

Using the steps of pemdas, solve what's inside the parentheses, from left to right.

4+(9×2)÷(4-2)+1

4+18÷2+1

Divide the 18 by 2.

4+9+1

Complete the addition from left to right.

13+1

14

First we have to work out everything inside the parentheses (according to PEMDAS):

9 × 2 = 18

4 - 2 = 2

Now, we can rewrite the expression:

4 + 18 ÷ 2 + 1

According to PEMDAS, we should complete the division in the middle first:

18 ÷ 2 = 9

Now we can rewrite the expression again:

4 + 9 + 1

And now it's as simple as just adding the three numbers together:

4 + 9 + 1 = 14


Your final answer is 14. :)
