In order to solve this and related equations we use the law called "BODMAS" . This means we start working from the bracket first, then division, multiplication , Addition,and subtraction respectively from left to right . Solved the brackets separately and then multiply them.
(3+9)(7-27)
(12)(-20)=-240
