Answer:

(7-3)x4

Explanation:

Youre subtracting 3 from 7 so that means that 7 is first because your subtracting 3 and seven is the greater number, it says to then multiply by 4 so that means that you have to put parenthesis around 7-3 because you need to do them first. I hope this makes sense and answers your question! :)
