Strictly speaking the answer is 1044.5
(14 x 3 - 5% + 13 squared) / 0.2
= (42-5% + 169) / 0.2
= (39.9 + 169) / 0.2
= 208.9 / 0.2
= 1044.5
1+0+4+4+5 = 14
How's that?
(That's going by the BIDMAS rule - Brackets, Indicies, Divide, Multiply, Add, Subtract, so first you do everything in the brackets, i.e. leave the divide by 0.2 until very last, then you take the indicies, i.e. square the 13 = 169, then division, there isn't any within the brackets, then multiplication, i.e. 14x3 = 42, then addition and subtraction, so take 5% off 42 = 39.9, then add the 169. So you end up with 208.9 inside the brackets, divide that by 0.2 to get 1044.5. How did you get 46?)

Some of the answers given are misleading. The correct order in which to do these operations is:
(14x3 -5% +13^2) / 0.2
= (42 -5% +13^2) / 0.2
= (39.9 +13^2) / 0.2
= (39.9 + 169) / 0.2
= (208.9) / 0.2
= 1044.5
1 + 0 + 4 + 4 + 5 = 14

(14*3-5%+13^2)/0.2 = 1054.75
1+0+5+4+7+5 = 22
Edit: It seems the 46 refers to a previous question of yours. It'd be less confusing if you posted it there.
