you do 7-5 first because its in parenthesis, then you divide 60 by 5 giving you 12. 12 multiplied by 2 equals 24

For this case we have the following expression:

(60)/(5)(7-5)
To resolve the expression, we must follow the following steps:
1) We divide 60 by 5:

12(7-5)
2) We solve the difference of 7 minus 5 within the parenthesis:

12(2)
3) We multiply both numbers:

24
Answer:
The result of the operation is 24
