Follow the order of operations. This always helped me remember them:
Please (parentheses)
Excuse (exponents)
My (multiply)
Dear (divide)
Aunt (add)
Sally (subtract)

5-[3*(4-2)^2]+(3*5).
Start with the parentheses:
5 - [3*(2)^2] + (15)
Then move on to exponents:
5 - [3*(4)] + 15
Multiply:
5 - [12] + 15
-7 +15
