Let's solve the expression step by step:

Expression:

$10 \cdot (11 - 8) \div 2 + (1 + 3) \div 2$

1. First, simplify inside the parentheses: \quad \text{and} \quad 1 + 3 = 4$$ Now, the expression becomes: $$10 \cdot 3 \div 2 + 4 \div 2$$
2. Next, perform the multiplications and divisions: \quad \text{and} \quad 30 \div 2 = 15$$ $$4 \div 2 = 2$$ Now, the expression is: $$15 + 2$$
3. Finally, add the results: $15 + 2 = 17$

Final Answer:

$17$

5. What is the result of $9 \cdot (15 - 8) \div 3 + (2 + 6) \div 2$?

Tip: Always perform operations inside parentheses first, then follow the order of operations (PEMDAS).
