(3a+3a*3a)*4b


PEMDAS is order of operations. Parenthesis, Exponents, Multiply/Divide left to right, Add/Subtract left to right.


Inside the () multiplication is first. 3a*3a = 9a%5E2


%283a%2B9a%5E2%29%2A4b

cannot add a term with a to a term with a squared, so multiply both terms by 4b.


12ab+%2B+36a%5E2b
