55. $\mathbf{6}\left(\mathbf{4}\right)\mathbf{+}\mathbf{3}\left(\mathbf{-}\mathbf{9}\right)$

Step-by-Step Solution

Answer

The value of $6\left(4\right)+3\left(-9\right)$ is $\mathbf{-}\mathbf{3}$.

Step 1 – Description of step.

Multiply 6 by 4.

$6·4=24$

Step 2 – Description of step.

Multiply 3 by $\left(-9\right)$.

$3·\left(-9\right)=-27$

Step 3 – Description of step.

Add the values obtained in step 1 and step 2.

$24+\left(-27\right)=-3$

Therefore, the value of $6\left(4\right)+3\left(-9\right)$ is $-3$.
