Final answer:

The student's question about an expression's return value is lacking the actual expression to evaluate. We can only explain the general process of expression evaluation in Computers and Technology, which typically follows operator precedence and language-specific syntax rules.

Step-by-step explanation:

The student's question seems incomplete as it references an expression but does not provide the actual expression to evaluate. In the realm of Computers and Technology, when discussing expressions, we might be referring to programming or mathematical expressions within a software context. If a student provides a specific expression, for example "3 + 4 * 2", we could then use the order of operations (PEMDAS/BODMAS) to evaluate it.

In programming, expressions are evaluated based on the language's syntax rules and operator precedence. For instance, if the expression was written in a programming language such as Python, the program would first multiply 4 by 2 and then add the result to 3, returning 11 as the final result. However, without the full details of the expression, we can only explain the general process of evaluation rather than provide the specific outcome.
