Answer:

21

Explanation:

PEMDAS : Parenthesis, Exponent, Multiplication/Division, Addition/Subtraction.

First, we want to deal with the parenthesis within the parenthesis.

(4.6/2) = 2.3

Rewrite it into the equation.

[3 * 2.3] + 14.1 = ?

Now, do the work in the parenthesis again.

[6.9] + 14.1 = ?

There isn't anymore parenthesis, exponents, or multiplication/division, so we move onto addition now and add both terms.

6.9 + 14.1 = 21

? = 21

The answer is 21.
