To simplify the expression, we follow the order of operations (PEMDAS/BODMAS) which states that we perform multiplication and division before addition and subtraction.
3 – 7 • 5 + 2 • 4
First, perform the multiplications:
3 - 35 + 8
Next, perform the subtractions and additions:
-32 + 8
This simplifies to:
-24
Therefore, the correct answer is –24.
