\"4%2B6%288-3m%29=4%2B6%2A8-6%2A%283m%29\" distributive property
\n" ); document.write( "\"4%2B6%2A8-6%2A%283m%29=4%2B48-6%2A%283m%29\" performing indicated operation as per order of operation rules
\n" ); document.write( "\"4%2B48-6%2A%283m%29=4%2B48-%286%2A3%29m\" associative property of multiplication
\n" ); document.write( "\"4%2B48-%286%2A3%29m=52-18m\" performing indicated operations
