What is the value of 2x{6+[12/(3+1)}-1

The value of an expression is calculated by simplifying the expression.
The value of the expression is 17
The expression is given as:
[tex]\mathbf{2 \times \{6+[12 \div (3+1)\}-1}[/tex]
Simplify 3 + 1
[tex]\mathbf{2 \times \{6+[12 \div (3+1)\}-1 = 2 \times \{6+[12 \div 4\}-1}[/tex]
Divide
[tex]\mathbf{2 \times \{6+[12 \div (3+1)\}-1 = 2 \times \{6+[3\}-1}[/tex]
Remove square bracket
[tex]\mathbf{2 \times \{6+[12 \div (3+1)\}-1 = 2 \times \{6+3\}-1}[/tex]
Add
[tex]\mathbf{2 \times \{6+[12 \div (3+1)\}-1 = 2 \times \{9\}-1}[/tex]
Remove curly bracket
[tex]\mathbf{2 \times \{6+[12 \div (3+1)\}-1 = 2 \times 9-1}[/tex]
Multiply
[tex]\mathbf{2 \times \{6+[12 \div (3+1)\}-1 = 18-1}[/tex]
Subtract
[tex]\mathbf{2 \times \{6+[12 \div (3+1)\}-1 = 17}[/tex]
Hence, the value of the expression is 17
