Solve {l}{3(4quad6)quad2(3quad9)}{5[1-2-4]^2}

$$\left. \begin{array} { l } { 3 ( 4 \quad 6 ) \quad 2 ( 3 \quad 9 ) } \\ { 5 [ 1 - 2 - 4 ] ^ { 2 } } \end{array} \right.$$

Sort

$$125,10764$$

Solution Steps

Multiply 3 and 46 to get 138.

$$sort(138\times 2\times 39,5\left(1-2-4\right)^{2})$$

Multiply 138 and 2 to get 276.

$$sort(276\times 39,5\left(1-2-4\right)^{2})$$

Multiply 276 and 39 to get 10764.

$$sort(10764,5\left(1-2-4\right)^{2})$$

Subtract 2 from 1 to get -1.

$$sort(10764,5\left(-1-4\right)^{2})$$

Subtract 4 from -1 to get -5.

$$sort(10764,5\left(-5\right)^{2})$$

Calculate -5 to the power of 2 and get 25.

$$sort(10764,5\times 25)$$

Multiply 5 and 25 to get 125.

$$sort(10764,125)$$

To sort the list, start from a single element 10764.

$$10764$$

Insert 125 to the appropriate location in the new list.

$$125,10764$$

Evaluate

$$10764,\ 125$$
