From the uploaded image, the equations appear to be:

1. $5 + (5 - 1) \times 2$
2. $5 \times (2 + 2)$

Let's solve each expression, following the order of operations (PEMDAS/BODMAS).

Solving the first equation: $5 + (5 - 1) \times 2$

1. Calculate inside the parentheses: $5 - 1 = 4$.
2. Multiply the result by 2: $4 \times 2 = 8$.
3. Add 5: $5 + 8 = 13$.

So, the solution to the first equation is $13$.

Solving the second equation: $5 \times (2 + 2)$

1. Calculate inside the parentheses: $2 + 2 = 4$.
2. Multiply 5 by 4: $5 \times 4 = 20$.

So, the solution to the second equation is $20$.

Final Answers:

• $5 + (5 - 1) \times 2 = 13$
• $5 \times (2 + 2) = 20$
