Answer:

123

Explanation:

Follow the PEMDAS order of operations. Learn more below. We only see parenthesis, so let us solve that.

12.3 × [(2 × 1.7) + 6.6]​

(2 × 1.7) solve the inner parenthesis

3.4 multiplied; remove the parenthesis

12.3 × [3.4 + 6.6]​

[3.4 + 6.6]​ solve the next parenthesis (which is the outer one)

10 added; remove the parenthesis

12.3 × 10 now we can just multiply

123 is the simplification.

PEMDAS

P = parenthesis

E = exponents

M = multiplication

D = division

A = addition

S = subtraction
