Pemdas, parenthesis first, for a total of 3. Then multiplication, 15, then addition. 17. What's hard about this?

I fucking suck at math and totally just re-proved it to myself with this problem lmao.

It didn't make sense to me to multiply the 3 & the 5 with zero consideration for the "2". I have ALWAYS struggled with the steps to solve these types of equations.

So the answer I got was 21. Some of us are just bad with numbers, I s'pose.
