Welcome to OpenStudy!!! With this question, you just have to follow the order of operations. Are you familiar with that?

2. anonymous

yes

3. BloomLocke367

Knowing that, what part do you think you'd do first?

4. anonymous

I can't just give you answers, it's against the Code of Conduct.

9. anonymous

ok

10. BloomLocke367

Now, which part do you think you do first, using the order of operations (PEMDAS)?

11. BloomLocke367

It's okay if you have no idea, you just have to let me know so I can help you.

12. anonymous

parentheses witch is 8. then 8 * 2 = 16, 16 -5 = 11, finally 11* 3 = 33. witch is not an answer.

13. tkhunny

Is it a 3 or a 5 or something else on the end?

15. tkhunny

Sorry about that. I get a little jumpy, on occasion.

16. BloomLocke367

That's fine :D I don't mind you helping too, lol. I just thought it was funny we had the same thought.

17. BloomLocke367

Welp, I have to go now. Best of luck @mathmaster666! I hope you figure it out soon :D

Sometimes, answer are wrong. Sometimes, problems are printed incorrectly. Go with confidence. You seem to have a clue.
