So use BOMDAS (Brackets of Multiplication,  Division, Addition and Subtraction) rule to start.

 

Therefore you'd work out all task contained in brackets first, ie:

-> (0.120) (0.08206)(296.15) ÷ (0.30263)

 

(Note- all i did was to rewrite 8.206 x 10 -2 as a decimal not in standard form)

 

Then do all multiplications, ie:

-> 2.91624828 ÷ 0.30263

 

Then divide:

-> 2.91624828 ÷ 0.30263= 9. 6363

 

Since you didnt state the number of significant digits required, I'm just going to leave it at 5.
