Calculated Answer

7

Step by Step Solution

In order to solve problem, you must evaluate n₀ - n₁ * (100 - 2 * 4).

n₀ =	1387
n₁ =	15

n₀ - n₁ * (100 - 2 * 4)
Evaluate 2 * 4 = 8
n₀ - n₁ * (100 - 8)
Evaluate 100 - 8 = 92
n₀ - n₁ * 92
Evaluate n₁ * 92 = 1380
n₀ - 1380
Evaluate n₀ - 1380 = 7
7
The answer to the problem and the result of n₀ - n₁ * (100 - 2 * 4) is 7
