First multiply, starting from the left of the equation, so what is 3 x 7?

21

sammixboo (sammixboo):

Correct, so we have 1 - 21 + 4 x 2 Still multiplying, what is 4 x 2?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

8

sammixboo (sammixboo):

Good, so we have 1 - 21 + 8 Now we must finish off this problem by solving it starting from the left side of the equation, so what is 1 - 21?

-20
