Question 453867
The problem is 3+4(6-2)
According to BODMAS rule we should simplify in the order of Brackets ,OF, Division, Multiplication ,Addition and finally Subtraction .
Accordingly in the above problem we should first simplify the Bracket then multiplication and then only addition.
So we first take up the numbers in the brackets that is (6-2)=4
Accordingly the problem becomes
3+4(6-2) =3+4(4) = 3+16 =19 
Hence 19 is the correct answer. 
 If we add 3 and 4 first,  we get wrong result.
Thank you very much for giving me the opportunity to explain
