Answer:

43

Explanation:

So, the key to solving this is PEMDAS, or parenthesis, exponents, multiplication/division from left to right, and addition/subtraction from left to right. So, you start off with 14x3, which is 42. So, you have 42-2+3. Next, you have to do 42-2, which is 40. Finally, you do 40+3, which is 43.
