Hello from MrBillDoesMath!
Answer:
-17 or 32, depending upon the value of the symbol before "11".
First answer (-17) if symbol interpreted as +; second answer (32) if symbol interpreted as "/"
Discussion:
The equation you wrote uses a division sign. The original, I believe, uses a plus sign instead. Not sure which one to use so let's solve both of them.
Interpretation 1:
2 (4^2 + 3) - 66 + 11 =
2( 16+3) - 66 + 11 =
2(19) -66 + 11 =
38 -66 + 11 =
= -17
Interpretation 2:
2 (4^2 + 3) - 66 \ 11 = => order of operation, "\" before "
2(19) - 6 =
38 - 6 =
32
Thank you,
MrB
