Simplifying 14 / 2 + 5 x 4, let's use the MDAS Rule.

MDAS rule Stands for MULTIPLICATION, DIVISION, ADDITION, and SUBTRACTION. Multiplication and\or Division then Addition and\or Subtraction always work the problem from left to right applying those rules first.

We get,


((14)/(2))\text{ + (5 x 4)}
(7)\text{ + (20)}
27

Thus, 14 / 2 + 5 x 4, when simplified is equals to 27.
