(8(11 - 2) - 5(11 - 2))/3 =?

(8(11 - 2) - 5(11 - 2))/3 =?

Explanation

To evaluate this expression, we need to follow the order of operations (PEMDAS):

Evaluate the expressions inside the parentheses:

    - 11 - 2 = 9

Replace the expressions with their values:

    - (8(9) - 5(9))/3

Multiply the numbers:

    - 72 - 45 = 27

Divide by 3:

    - 27/3 = 9

So, the correct answer is: 9
