Let's solve the expression step by step:
1. Identify the components of the expression:
- We have a multiplication term: [tex]\( 161 \times 1011 \)[/tex]
- We have a subtraction term: [tex]\( -1 \)[/tex]
2. First, perform the multiplication:
[tex]\[
161 \times 1011
\][/tex]
By performing the multiplication of [tex]\( 161 \)[/tex] and [tex]\( 1011 \)[/tex], we get:
[tex]\[
161 \times 1011 = 162771
\][/tex]
3. Next, perform the subtraction:
[tex]\[
162771 - 1
\][/tex]
Subtracting [tex]\( 1 \)[/tex] from [tex]\( 162771 \)[/tex], we get:
[tex]\[
162771 - 1 = 162770
\][/tex]
4. Conclusion:
Thus, the final result of the expression [tex]\( 161(1011) - 1 \)[/tex] is:
[tex]\[
162770
\][/tex]
