I’ve always been taught PEMDAS, but I’ve heard conflicting explanations on that. So I’ll tell you how I personally got to my answers.
First equation: do parentheses first. So 5+6= 11, then do multiplication. 11×3= 33. Finally subtract the 1. Answer =32.
Second equation: parentheses first. 3-1= 2. Then multiplication. You would have 5+6×2. Or 5+ 6(2) = 5+12 which would be 17.
