Step-by-step solution

6 steps

The expression you provided contains some ambiguous notation. I will interpret the expression as follows:

  • 4x_ means 4x4x multiplied by the bracket.
  • (_4)__ means (4)(4) multiplied by the next bracket.
  • 2_2 means 2×22 \times 2.

So, the expression is interpreted as:

4x×[5+(4)×(8+2×2+3)]4x \times [5 + (4) \times (8 + 2 \times 2 + 3)]
  1. Simplify the innermost parentheses (8+2×2+3)(8 + 2 \times 2 + 3).

    First, perform the multiplication:

    2×2=42 \times 2 = 4

    Then, perform the additions:

    8+4+3=12+3=158 + 4 + 3 = 12 + 3 = 15
  2. Substitute this value back into the expression

    4x×[5+(4)×15]4x \times [5 + (4) \times 15]
  3. Perform the multiplication inside the square brackets

    4×15=604 \times 15 = 60
  4. Substitute this value back into the expression

    4x×[5+60]4x \times [5 + 60]
  5. Perform the addition inside the square brackets

    5+60=655 + 60 = 65
  6. Perform the final multiplication

    4x×65=260x4x \times 65 = 260x

    The simplified expression is 260x260x.
