It is still uncertain, from this writing whether 'x+3' is dividing just the '11X-19' aspect, or whether it is meant to be dividing all of the preceding. Normally, as it is written, it means the former:

(a) Multiplication, in this problem, is done first, following the BODMAS rule:

2X3=6; 11X2=22; and 11X-19=-209

So, the problem now reads:

6+22+-209/(x+3)

ANS = 28-209/(x+3)

(b) If we assume the intended meaning is to divide the whole lot by x+3, in which case the original question should finish by saying, "all divided by x plus 3", the problem is set out such:

[2X3+11X2+11X-19]/(x+3)

= [6+22-209]/(x+3)

=[28-209]/(x+3)

ANS = 181/(x+3)
