  • Q #1:   Simplify the expression above. Which of the following is correct?

    A. 33

    B. 44

    C. 25

    D. 12

    Answer Explanation

    Let's simplify the expression step by step:

    Step 1: Inside the square brackets, perform the operation within parentheses first:

    ([4(3+6?5)]=[4(3+30)] ) 

    Step 2: Continue simplifying inside the square brackets:

    ([4(3+30)]=[4ast33])

    Step 3: Calculate the value inside the square brackets:

    ([4ast33]=132)

    Step 4: Now, deal with the denominator:

    ((20÷5)=4)

    Step 5: Finally, divide the result from step 3 by the result from step 4:

    (132/4=33)

    So, the simplified expression is 33.
