Answer:

22.5

Explanation:

It is very important to use bidmas (the order of mathematical functions - standing for brackets, indices, division, multiplication, addition, subtraction) in this question. 15 + 6 x 7 - 12 divided by 2 can also be written as (15 + 6 × 7 - 12) ÷ 2. First, you should complete the multiplication to make (15 + 42 - 12) ÷ 2. Then, complete the addition which makes (57 - 12) ÷ 2. Afterwards, do the subtraction which makes it 45 ÷ 2. This is 22.5. I hope this helps!
