This is a classic use of the old PEMDAS rule. The order of operation goes by Parenthesis, Exponents, Multiplication/Division, Addition/Subtration. Take it step by step to avoid getting mixed up.
The first operation done is (410-360) which = 50.
New Equation: 825 - (659 - 50 x 684) = ?
The second operation done is 50 * 684 which = 34200
New Equation: 825 - (659 - 34200) = ?
The third operation done is 659 - 34200 which = -33541
New Equation: 825 - (-33541) = 825 + 33541 = ?
it becomes +33541 because subtracting a negative is the same as adding the positive.
The final operation done is 825 + 33541 which = 34366
Your Final Solution Is:
825 - (659 - (410 - 360) * 684) = 34366
