32

If this was really meant to have the product in the denominator, thus:

(7 + 3^2) / (8 * 4^2) then it's different

(7 + 9) / (8 * 16)

16 / 128

1 / 8

Answer 2

(7+9)/8*4^2

(7+9)/8*16

16/8*16

2*16

32

Answer 3

using bodmas rule i.e, bracket of division multiplication addition subtraction

                 (7+9)/8*16

               = (16/8)*16

               = 2*16

               =32

Answer 4

=(7+3^2) / 8 * 4^2

=(7+9) / 8 * 4 * 4

=16 / 128

=1 / 8

Answer 5

First solve the powers. Making it (7+9)/ 8 multiplied by 16
