Step-by-step explanation:

  40/8+3^2+(15-7)*2 . . . . given

The order of operations tells you to start by evaluating expressions in parentheses. Here, that is the subtraction of 7 from 15.

  40/8 +3^2 +8*2 . . . . (15-7) = 8

Then you evaluate exponential terms.

  40/8 +9 +8*2 . . . . . 3^2 = 9

Then perform multiplication and division, left to right. Here, division is first, then multiplication.

  5 +9 +8*2 . . . . . divide 40/8 = 5

  5 +9 +16 . . . . . . multiply 8*2 = 16

Finally, perform addition and subtraction, left to right.

  14 +16 . . . . add 5+9

  30 . . . . . . . add 14+16

the least common denominatore of 7 and 2 is 9

step-by-step explanation:

7+2=9
