Final answer:

By following the proper order of operations (PEMDAS), the value that should replace the box in the given expression (60) / (5) + 4 * 14 is 68.

Step-by-step explanation:

The expression inside the box can be found by performing the operations given in the question. For the expression (60) / (5) + 4 * 14, you start by following the order of operations, often remembered by the acronym PEMDAS (Parenthesis, Exponents, Multiplication and Division (from left to right), Addition and Subtraction (from left to right)).

  1. First, perform the division (60) / (5) which equals 12.
  2. Then do the multiplication: 4 * 14 equals 56.
  3. Finally, add the results of these two operations together: 12 + 56 equals 68.

So, if it's to form an equation, 68 should replace the box.
