See the entire solution process below:

Explanation:

Using the PEMDAS Method, there are no Parenthesis or Exponents (PE), so we next process Multiplication and Division (MD), left to right:

#color(red)((33 -: 3)) + 10 ->#

#11 + 10#

Now, we process the Addition and Subtraction (AS):

#11 + 10 = 21#

#21#

Explanation:

According to the order of operations (precedence rules) you go from left to right. Multiplication and division occurs before addition and subtraction:

#33-:3 + 10 = (33-:3) + 10 = 11 + 10 = 21#
