Step-by-step solution

According to the rules of the order of operations, multiplication and division precede addition and subtraction.

We isolate the multiplication exercise in parentheses and solve.

(7×3)=21 (7\times3)=21

Now, the exercise we're left with is: 21+847= 21+8-4-7=

We solve the exercise from left to right. We isolate the next part of the expression with parentheses to avoid confusion(21+8)=29 (21+8)=29

Now, the exercise obtained is: 2947= 29-4-7=
