Answer:
The answer is 28.
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we do 3 + 5 = 8 -- Because of PEMDAS, they say that parenthesis () comes first, from left to right.
Second, we do 8 - 1 = 7 -- Because we do operations from left to right.
Third, we multiply 7 by 2 (or 4 to make it easier because there is the commutative property of multiplication).
If we multiply 7 by 2 and then another 2, we get 28. We could also multiply 7 by 4 because 2 x 2 = 4.
I hope this helps! Please comment anything if it doesn't make sense.
