Answer:

1

Explanation:

Remember PEMDAS:

P: we have no parenthesis, so skip this step.

E: no exponents either.

MD (multiplication and division): we have 3x5. when we calculate this, it is equal to 15. Therefore our equation is now simplified to 18-15-2.

AS (addition and subtraction): Subtract in order of first to last. The answer is 1.
