To find the value of the expression 4(3 + 2) - 6, you can follow the order of operations, often remembered by the acronym PEMDAS (Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication and Division (from left to right), Addition and Subtraction (from left to right)).

First, calculate the expression inside the parentheses:

3 + 2 equals 5.

Next, substitute this value back into the expression:

Now, perform the multiplication:

4 times 5 equals 20.

Finally, subtract 6 from this result:
