Order of Operations in Structural Stress Evaluation

An industrial technician uses the formula 2x2y{}2x^2y to calculate structural load stress on an alloy bracket during a quality inspection. If the measured bracket thickness ratio xx is 14\frac{1}{4} and the load coefficient yy is βˆ’23-\frac{2}{3}, state the very first calculation step required by the order of operations after substitution, and calculate its resulting value.
