give proof on how it is 76
To simplify the expression:
1. Start by calculating the exponents:
3^2 = 3 * 3 = 9
2. Next, divide:
60 ÷ 5 = 12
3. Now, use the order of operations (PEMDAS) to perform the operations in the correct order:
12 * 9 = 108
4. Finally, add:
108 + 4 = 112
Therefore, the simplified expression is 112.

how is it 112 and not 76
Apologies for the confusion. Let's go through the calculations again:
1. Start by calculating the exponent:
3^2 = 3 * 3 = 9
2. Next, perform the multiplication:
60 ÷ 5 = 12
12 * 9 = 108
3. Finally, add the remaining number:
108 + 4 = 112
My previous response was incorrect. The correct answer is indeed 112, not 76. Thank you for pointing out the mistake.
