Operation preference wiseSymbolBrackets[],,()Orders,of²(power),(root),ofDivision÷Multiplication×Addition+Subtraction\begin{array}{|c|c|} \hline \textbf{Operation preference wise} & \textbf{Symbol} \\ \hline Brackets &[],{}, () \\ \hline Orders, of & ² (power), √ (root) , of \\ \hline Division & ÷ \\ \hline Multiplication & × \\ \hline Addition & + \\ \hline Subtraction & - \\ \hline \end{array} ​​

Solution : 

Approximate value of 

7.98 \approx 8

3.96 \approx 4

Now, Simplifying the equation : 

×\times 2 + 4 ×\times 6 - 18 ÷\div 2 + 1

= 8 ×\times 2 + 4×\times​ 6 - 9 + 1
