You asked:

Evaluate the expression: \(40 - 2 \cdot \left(\frac{8 \cdot 3}{6} + \frac{12}{2}\right)\)

MathBot Answer:

\[40 - 2 \cdot \left(\frac{8 \cdot 3}{6} + \frac{12}{2}\right) = 20\]


\[\begin{aligned}40 - 2 \cdot \left(\frac{8 \cdot 3}{6} + \frac{12}{2}\right)& = 40 - 2 \cdot \left(8 \cdot \frac{3}{6} + \frac{12}{2}\right)\\& = 40 - 2 \cdot \left(\frac{8}{2} + \frac{12}{2}\right)\\& = 40 - 2 \cdot \left(4 + \frac{12}{2}\right)\\& = 40 - 2 \cdot 10\\& = 40 - 20\\& = 20\end{aligned}\]
