Given situation: => 18 times 4 to the second power plus (9 minus 3) to the second powerLila answers 324 while Rob answers 360 in the given problem or equation.Now, let's try to solve it to know who got the correct answer:=> 18 x 4^2 + (9 - 3)^2, since we have a parenthesis in our equation, we need to solve it first=> 18 * 4^2 + (6)^2=> 18 * (4* 4) + (6 * 6)=> (18 * 16) + 36=> 288 + 36=> 324Thus Lila got the correct answer
