To solve the given expression, we follow the order of operations (PEMDAS/BODMAS):
First, we calculate the division:
144 ÷ 9 = 16
Now we substitute the result back into the original expression:
35 + 20(16)
Next, we perform the multiplication:
20 × 16 = 320
Finally, we add the remaining numbers:
35 + 320 = 355
Therefore, the value of the expression 35 + 20(144 ÷ 9) is 355.
