Calculate the value of the following expression: [10 + {4 × [(2/3 + 1/4) × (√144 ÷ 121) + 23] ÷ 12 + 5} – 3] = ?

Explanation

Step-by-step solution: First, simplify inside the brackets: (2/3 + 1/4) = 11/12. Next, compute √144 ÷ 121 = 12 ÷ 11. Multiply these: (11/12) × (12/11) = 1. Adding 23 gives 24. Then multiply by 4 and divide by 12: (4 × 24) ÷ 12 = 8. Adding 5 results in 13. Now, the expression becomes [10 + 13 – 3] = 20.
