Answer 1

Let's evaluate the expression step by step:

The expression is:

\[ 7 \left( 7 + 3 \left( 2^2 \right) \right) \]

1. Calculate \( 2^2 \):

\[ 2^2 = 4 \]

2. Now substitute back into the expression:

\[ 7 \left( 7 + 3 \left( 4 \right) \right) \]

3. Calculate \( 3 \times 4 \):

\[ 3 \times 4 = 12 \]

4. Substitute this back into the expression:

\[ 7 \left( 7 + 12 \right) \]

5. Calculate \( 7 + 12 \):

\[ 7 + 12 = 19 \]

6. Substitute this back into the expression:

\[ 7 \times 19 \]

7. Finally, calculate \( 7 \times 19 \):

\[ 7 \times 19 = 133 \]

So, the value of the expression is **133**.

The correct answer is **D. 133**.
