Answer:

27,200

Explanation:

Usually when solving problems similar to this, you would use PEMDAS:

Parenthesis - solving everything inside the parenthesis first, if possible

Exponents - then solve the exponents, if any, if possible

Multiplication - after the exponents, solve anything that multiplies, if possible

Division - after everything is multiplied, start dividing, if possible

Addition - after everything has been divided, start adding, if possible

Subtraction - after everything has been added, start subtracting, is possible

You must remember to start solving from left to right.

In this case, there isn't any parenthesis, so we move on to exponents.

There aren't any exponents either, so we move on to multiplication.

We will start from the left, or 54,400 times 06, which is 326,400

Now, multiply 326,400 with 1/12, which gives us 27,200

We aren't left with anything to divide, add, or subtract, indicating that this is the final answer.
