Answer:
18
Explanation:
The order of operations for mathematical expression is the following.
0. Parenthesis
,
1. Exponents
,
2. Multiplication & Division
,
3. Addition & subtraction
Therefore, in our case, we first evaluate the parenthesis in our expression.
Since, 4x3 = 12 and 9 ÷ 3 = 3, our expression becomes
[tex]12\times3-6\times3[/tex]
Next, we carry out the multiplication ( since there are no exponents in our expression). Since 12 x 3 = 36 and 6x 3 = 18, the above becomes
[tex]36-18[/tex]
which we evaluate to get:
[tex]36-18=\boxed{18.\text{ }}[/tex]
Hence, we conclude that
[tex]\boxed{(4\times3)\times3-6\times(9\div3)=18.}[/tex]
