Answer:

1.7-20x OR 10/6-5x

Explanation:

40÷(24-4x(2+3))

first you add the last set of ()

40÷(24-4x(5))

then you multiply by 4x

40÷(24-20x)

since you can't subtract those two you do this

40÷24-20x

divide 40 and 24

you get 1.66666667 then you round up

1.7-20x

OR

you put 40/24-20x

divide the top and the bottom by 4

(40÷4)/(24÷4) -(20x÷4)

and your answer will be

10/6-5x
