Answer 1

use the order of operations

 

grouping symbols

raise to a power (exponentiation)

multiplication and division in order from left to right whichever occurs first

addition and subtraction in order from left to right whichever occurs first

 

3.6+(3*9.6-4.8)

work within the parentheses first

3*9.6-4.8

multiply before subtracting

3*9.6=28.8

28.8-4.8=24

3.6+(24)=27.6 answer
