4+(6 exponent 2 divided by 1-fourth) x 3

Answer 1

To simplify the expression 4 + (6^2 / 1 - 1/4) x 3, we need to apply the order of operations.

First, we calculate the exponent: 6^2 = 36.

Next, we simplify the fraction: 1 - 1/4 = 3/4.

Now, we substitute the values back into the expression: 4 + (36 / 3/4) x 3.

To simplify further, we need to divide by a fraction, which is equivalent to multiplying by its reciprocal. Therefore, we have 36 x 4/3 x 3.

Canceling out the common factors, we get 36 x 4 x 1 = 144.

So the final simplified expression is 4 + 144 = 148.
