Answer:


24

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to simplify the given expression

The rule of order is PEDMAS

Where:

P is parentheses

E is Exponents

D is Division

M is Multiplication

A is Addition

S is subtraction

This is the order in which these operators must be evaluated in a given expression

Thus, we have it that:


\begin{gathered} 2+4(8)-10\text{ } \\ 2+4*8-10 \\ =\text{ 2+32-10} \\ =\text{ 34-10} \\ =\text{ 24} \end{gathered}
