To solve the expression \( 300 + 124 \times 5 - 285 \), we follow the order of operations (PEMDAS/BODMAS).
First, perform the multiplication: \[ 124 \times 5 = 620 \]
Then, substitute that back into the expression: \[ 300 + 620 - 285 \]
Now, perform the addition: \[ 300 + 620 = 920 \]
Finally, subtract: \[ 920 - 285 = 635 \]
So, the final result is \( 635 \).
