59 - 24 / 8 x 3 + 41

Answer 1

To solve the expression \( 59 - 24 / 8 \times 3 + 41 \), we need to follow the order of operations (PEMDAS/BODMAS: Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication and Division (from left to right), Addition and Subtraction (from left to right)).

1. Division first: \[ 24 / 8 = 3 \]

2. Now substituting back into the expression: \[ 59 - 3 \times 3 + 41 \]

3. Next, perform the multiplication: \[ 3 \times 3 = 9 \]

4. Substituting again: \[ 59 - 9 + 41 \]

5. Now, perform subtraction and addition from left to right: \[ 59 - 9 = 50 \] \[ 50 + 41 = 91 \]

The final result is: \[ \boxed{91} \]
