    The answer to your questions is: 5 + 3 x (12 - 3) = 35

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Data

    5+3x12-3=35

    This exercise is easy, only combine different positions of parenthesis until, you find the correct answer.

    First option

    (5+3) x (12-3) = 35

    8 x 10 = 35

    80 ≠ 35 So, this option is not correct

    Second possibility

    5 + (3x12) - 3=35

    5 + 36 - 3 = 35

    41 - 3 = 35

    38 ≠ 35 This option is incorrect

    Third possibility

    5+3x (12-3) = 35

    5 + 3 (10) = 35

    5 + 30 = 35

    35 = 35 This is the right option
