00:00 Solve

00:03 Let's solve each operation separately and then continue

00:09 We can do this according to the commutative law

00:15 Let's solve according to order of operations, solving from left to right

00:20 And this is the solution to the question

We solve the exercise according to the order of operations.

We place the addition and subtraction exercises in parentheses in the following way to make it easier to solve:

$(2+6)-10+(30-2)=$

We solve the exercises in parentheses:

$8-10+28=$

We place the subtraction exercise in parentheses:

$(8-10)+28=$

$-2+28=26$
