Think about what the numbers are. To get an answer that big, the only way you can get there is by multiplying the first two.
Then look at that product, and figure out how much you have to add or subtract to come up with 872, and see how you can get that figure from the last two numbers.
Hint: you will need ( ) around the last two.
You should be able to figure it out from the above.

(26 x 37) - (15 x 6) = 872
26 x 37 = 962
15 x 6 = 90
962 - 90 = 872
so there you go :D sorted! n worked out

Here's a hint: 26*37 = 962.
Now, how do you manipulate the final 2 numbers to get
872?

(26 * 37) - (15 * 6) = 872, in case you cannot get the answer... but try to think and do it yourself, first.... coz no one is gonna help you in the exams...
