48
Explanation:
use PEMDAS
there is no Parenthesis
there is no exponets
there is multiplication
you can rewrite the question like this:
(3x9) + (3x7)
when you do the multiplication you will end up with 27+21. add them and you will get your answer of 48.
or
group the factors. since both of them have 3 in them you add the other quanities which is 9 and 7. you will now have 3(16). multiply it and you will get 48 as well
