Let’s solve this step by step.

We have:
3³ + 4(8 - 5) ÷ 6 = ?

---

Step 1: Handle the exponent (power)


3³ means 3 × 3 × 3 = 27

So now we have:
27 + 4(8 - 5) ÷ 6

---

Step 2: Solve inside the parentheses


8 - 5 = 3

Now it becomes:
27 + 4(3) ÷ 6

Note: 4(3) just means 4 × 3

---

Step 3: Do multiplication and division from left to right


First, 4 × 3 = 12

Now:
27 + 12 ÷ 6

Next, 12 ÷ 6 = 2

Now:
27 + 2

---

Step 4: Final addition


27 + 2 = 29

---

Final Answer:
29
