32 + 6 * 5 - 7 + 12/4 =

Follow the correct order of operations. First, do multiplications and divisions in the order they appear from left to right.

= 32 + 30 - 7 + 3

Now do additions and subtractions in the order they appear from left to right.

= 62 - 7 + 3

= 55 + 3

= 58

Hey there!

In order for you to solve this equation, we have to do
PEMDAS


Parentheses


Exponents


Multiplication


Division


Addition


Subtraction


32+
6(5)
-7
+
(12)/(4)

So,, we first we have to do
multiplication since we DON'T have any
Parentheses or
exponents


6(5)
=
30

Our equation now looks like↓


32 + 30
-7
+
(12)/(4)

Nextly, we have to do
addition


32 + 30
=
62

Our equation now becomes to look like this↓


62
-7
+
(12)/(4)

Thirdly, we have to do
subtraction


62-7
= 55

Our equation looks like this ↓


55 +
(12)/(4)

Fourthly, we do the last step,
division


(12)/(4)
= 3

Our equation becomes ↓


55 +3, and this ← result out to
58

Therefore, your answer would most likely be:
\boxed{B.58}

Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!
