I keep doing something wrong when trying to solve -12(6-8)² ÷ (-3) + 3 • 4, I think the (-3) is throwing me off, I know I'm supposed to do parenthesis first, but I don't know what to do with the (-3)

Sagot :

The given expression is:

[tex]-12(6-8)^2\div(-3)+3\cdot4[/tex]

We need to solve first the parentheses, so:

[tex]\begin{gathered} -12(-2)^2\div(-3)+3\cdot4 \\ \\ =-12(4)\div(-3)+3\cdot4 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Now, solve the multiplications:

[tex]=(-48)\div(-3)+12[/tex]

The next operation to solve is the division:

[tex]=16+12[/tex]

Finally, solve the addition:

[tex]=28[/tex]

The answer is 28
