Answer

18

Step-by-step solution

4 steps

The problem written in the sand is:

(18−6×2)+3×22(18 - 6 \times 2) + 3 \times 2^2
  1. Solve the operations inside the parentheses first, following the order of operations (multiplication before subtraction).

    18−6×2=18−12=618 - 6 \times 2 = 18 - 12 = 6

    The expression becomes:

    6+3×226 + 3 \times 2^2
  2. Evaluate the exponent.

    22=42^2 = 4

    The expression becomes:

    6+3×46 + 3 \times 4
  3. Perform the multiplication.

    3×4=123 \times 4 = 12

    The expression becomes:

    6+126 + 12
  4. Perform the addition.

    6+12=186 + 12 = 18

    The final answer is 18.
