Use ''PEMDAS'', so start with the things in parenthesis, but sense there are brackets [], solve what's in brackets first off.

54/6 = 9
OpenStudy (anonymous):
What you have left of this problem is
(20 - 9) * 2 + 1
Now solve what is in parenthesis, then multiply that by 2. Add the final sum plus 1, and you've got it!
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so 3
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Well since 20 - 9 = 11, you multiply that by 2.... which is 22. Add 1 to get the final answer, which is 23.
