Answer: 44

Step-by-step explanation:

The algebraic hierarchy of operations tells us that we must first solve the multiplications before the addition and subtraction.

So in the expression that we have:


50-4*3+6

We must first solve the multiplication between 4 and 3 (wich is 12), we get the following:


50-12+6

Next, we can solve the substractions and additions, in the order we wish, we can do first the substraction (50-12=38):


38+6

And then the addition:


38+6=44

The result is 44.
