5 answers

well, it is unclear to me what the question is.
a) [(70+40)/5 ]*4 or
b) [(70+40)/(5*4)] or
c) (70/1 + 40/5 )4 or many other possibilities.
What level of mathematics are you at?
Do fractions confuse you Lidia?
i got 5.5
If you are taking basic math that is the right answer.
70+40 = 110
5*4 = 20
110/20 = 11/2
=5.5
Finding the value and evaluating means going through order of operations and simplifying. 5.5 is the farthest down you can simplify.

However, if you are taking another type of math your answer could be something else altogether. you didn't say what your math class was.
According to the order of operation the way you typed it

70+40/5*4
= 70 + 8*4
= 70+32
= 102

apparently Google know the order of operation
