Hey there!

The order of operations is as follows:

P-Parentheses E- Exponents M- Multiplication D-Division A- Addition S- Subtraction

Therefore, we go inside the parentheses first. In the parentheses, we follow the order of operations again, so we do multiplication first. This means we compute 20 * 3 first.

Your answer is C.

Hope this helps!
