Final answer:

After following the order of operations on the corrected expression, the final answer is 1036 which does not match any of the provided options. It is important to carefully handle parentheses and perform each step methodically.

Step-by-step explanation:

Advance Order of Operations:

The provided expression, assuming the typos in the original question are resolved, looks like it would be something akin to ((66 + 11) × 2 - 6) × 7. To solve it, you will need to follow the order of operations, commonly abbreviated as PEMDAS (Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication and Division, and Addition and Subtraction). We do not have any exponents here, so we'll skip that step.

First, calculate the expression inside the innermost parentheses:
66 + 11 = 77

Next, multiply that result by 2:
77 × 2 = 154

Afterwards, subtract 6:
154 - 6 = 148

Finally, multiply that result by 7 to get the final answer:
148 × 7 = 1036

Note that none of the provided answer choices a) 121, b) 210, c) 77, or d) 154 match the correct result obtained from performing the advance order of operation on the expression.
