Step by Step Solution

In order to solve problem, you must evaluate n₀ + (n₁ - n₀) / 3 * 2.

• n₀ + (n₁ - n₀) / 3 * 2

• Evaluate n₁ - n₀ = 204

  n₀ + 204 / 3 * 2

• Evaluate 204 / 3 = 68

  n₀ + 68 * 2

• Evaluate 68 * 2 = 136

  n₀ + 136

• Evaluate n₀ + 136 = 156

  156
• The answer to the problem and the result of n₀ + (n₁ - n₀) / 3 * 2 is 156
