Explanation:

Use PEDMAS method

P - Parenthesis

E - Exponents

D - Division

M - Multiplication

A- Addition

S -Subtraction


(1)/(4)(15-6) + 3^(3) ÷ 12 =
(1)/(4)*9+3^(3) ÷ 12 {Operation inside parenthesis}

= (9)/(4) + (27)/(12)\\\\\\= (9*3)/(4*3) + (27)/(12) \\\\\\= (27)/(12) + (27)/(12)\\\\\\=(27+27)/(12)\\\\\\=(54)/(12)\\\\=(9)/(2)\\\\= 4(1)/(2)
