Use PEMDAS to solve the problem.
PARENTHESIS
EXPONENTS
MULTIPLICATION
DIVISION
ADDITION
SUBTRACTION

In the problem
99 + 1 * 4, there is only multiplication and addition.
According to PEMDAS, multiplication comes before addition. So you do that first.

1 * 4 = 4
Now you add 4 and 99 to get your answer.

99 + 4 = 103
The answer is
\boxed{ 103 }.

However, it looks like in your question the 99+1 is separated from the 4. If the question was originally
(99 + 1) * 4 then we do the parenthesis first. 99 + 1 = 100.
100 * 4 = 400.

So depending on your question,

99+1*4=\boxed{103}

(99+1)*4=\boxed{400}
