Well for this you have to use Order of Operations 


PEMDAS 

Parenthesis exponents multiplication division and subtraction 

Which comes first in this expression? 

 16 + 4 • 5 – 6 ÷ 2

aveline · Answer

Use PEMDAS:
16 + (4*5) - (6/2)

seratul · Answer

It would be C 33.
If you follow PEMDAS, you should do 4 times 5 to get 20. Then you should do 6/2 to get 3. Add 16+20 to get 36. Then subtract by 3 to get 33.
