If it's written: 2+3*6 then you have to do PEMDAS which is the order of operations from first to last: Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication, Division, Addition, and Subtraction. So according to this rule you must first do the Multiplication (3*6=18) and finally add 2 (18+2). So the answer is 20.

However if it is written: (2+3)*6 or (2+3)6 then you do Parentheses first and then Multiplication, so it would be 30.
