Answer: 2987
First we need to rewrite the equation. Since x = 23 and y = 36 the equation should look like this for easier steps:
25(23) + 67(36) = ?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Now since there numbers by other numbers in parentheses, we need to multiply them.
25 x 23 = 575.
67 x 36 = 2412.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Now that the equation is in its final form, we write it like this for the answer:
575 + 2412 =
2987.
