Remember PEMDAS for the order in which to perform operations.

1. P - First you solve anything in parenthesis

2. E - Then you solve anything with an exponent

3. M/D - Then you multiply or divide (neither comes before the other so just solve left to right)

4. A/S - Then you add or subtract (again neither comes before the other so just solve from left to right)

 

If we solve everything in parenthesis first we get:

14*3 + 12/3

 

There is nothing with an exponent so we can skip that. There is a multiply and a divide operation so perform those from left to right.

 

42 + 4

 

Then finally add to get:

 

46
