The correct answer is
434

Solving the Mathematical Expression

To find the value of the given expression, we need to follow the order of operations (PEMDAS/BODMAS): Parentheses/Brackets, Exponents/Orders, Multiplication and Division (from left to right), Addition and Subtraction (from left to right).

The expression is: $ [868 \div \{26 + 6 \times (3 - 7)\}] $

Step-by-Step Calculation

  • Step 1: Solve the innermost parenthesis. Calculate the value inside $(3 - 7)$. $ 3 - 7 = -4 $
  • Step 2: Perform multiplication within the curly braces. Multiply the result from Step 1 by 6. $ 6 \times (-4) = -24 $
  • Step 3: Perform addition within the curly braces. Add the result from Step 2 to 26. $ 26 + (-24) = 26 - 24 = 2 $
  • Step 4: Perform the division. Divide 868 by the result from Step 3. $ 868 \div 2 = 434 $

Final Result

The value of the expression $ [868 \div \{26 + 6 \times (3 - 7)\}] $ is 434.
