Answer:

1.90476190476 or 1.90

Explanation:

PEMDAS

Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication/Division, Addition/Subtraction.

first you would do anything inside the parenthesis

(87 − 7) ÷ 42 =

80÷ 42 =

next you would do any Exponents but in this case we dont have to so you would do any Multiplication/Division whichever comes first

80÷ 42 = 1.90476190476

now you could round it to 1.90
