5 + [2 · (15 - 3) ÷ 6] · 3 Simplify 15 - 3:
= 5 + [2 · (12) ÷ 6] · 3 Remove the parentheses:
= 5 + [2 · 12 ÷ 6] · 3 Inside the parentheses, do the multiplication first:
= 5 + [24 ÷ 6] · 3 Now, do the division:
= 5 + [4] · 3 Do the multiplication before you do the addition:
= 5 + 12 Now finish:
= 17
