Do you want the steps or just the answer?

anonymous · Answer

both please that I can learn how to do it and find the answer..

anonymous · Answer

okay so you are going to use the PEMDAS method
Parenthesis 
Exponents
Multiplication
Division
Addition 
Subtraction 
so you start with parenthesis
so 4[(10-4)]^2/4 =
4[6]^2/4
then you go to exponents
(4)(36)/4
then multiplication
so 144/4=
then division
so the answer is 36 because you dont have any more steps to do
