Sort

$$-132,\ -18$$

Solution Steps

Add -2 and 13 to get 11.

$$sort(11-45-\left(-12+7\right)-\left(-\left(25-73\right)+67-28-\left(-16\right)\right),24-12-19-35+27-\left(31-42\right)-14)$$

Subtract 45 from 11 to get -34.

$$sort(-34-\left(-12+7\right)-\left(-\left(25-73\right)+67-28-\left(-16\right)\right),24-12-19-35+27-\left(31-42\right)-14)$$

Add -12 and 7 to get -5.

$$sort(-34-\left(-5\right)-\left(-\left(25-73\right)+67-28-\left(-16\right)\right),24-12-19-35+27-\left(31-42\right)-14)$$

The opposite of -5 is 5.

$$sort(-34+5-\left(-\left(25-73\right)+67-28-\left(-16\right)\right),24-12-19-35+27-\left(31-42\right)-14)$$

Add -34 and 5 to get -29.

$$sort(-29-\left(-\left(25-73\right)+67-28-\left(-16\right)\right),24-12-19-35+27-\left(31-42\right)-14)$$

Subtract 73 from 25 to get -48.

$$sort(-29-\left(-\left(-48\right)+67-28-\left(-16\right)\right),24-12-19-35+27-\left(31-42\right)-14)$$

The opposite of -48 is 48.

$$sort(-29-\left(48+67-28-\left(-16\right)\right),24-12-19-35+27-\left(31-42\right)-14)$$

Add 48 and 67 to get 115.

$$sort(-29-\left(115-28-\left(-16\right)\right),24-12-19-35+27-\left(31-42\right)-14)$$

Subtract 28 from 115 to get 87.

$$sort(-29-\left(87-\left(-16\right)\right),24-12-19-35+27-\left(31-42\right)-14)$$

The opposite of -16 is 16.

$$sort(-29-\left(87+16\right),24-12-19-35+27-\left(31-42\right)-14)$$

Add 87 and 16 to get 103.

$$sort(-29-103,24-12-19-35+27-\left(31-42\right)-14)$$

Subtract 103 from -29 to get -132.

$$sort(-132,24-12-19-35+27-\left(31-42\right)-14)$$

Subtract 12 from 24 to get 12.

$$sort(-132,12-19-35+27-\left(31-42\right)-14)$$

Subtract 19 from 12 to get -7.

$$sort(-132,-7-35+27-\left(31-42\right)-14)$$

Subtract 35 from -7 to get -42.

$$sort(-132,-42+27-\left(31-42\right)-14)$$

Add -42 and 27 to get -15.

$$sort(-132,-15-\left(31-42\right)-14)$$

Subtract 42 from 31 to get -11.

$$sort(-132,-15-\left(-11\right)-14)$$

The opposite of -11 is 11.

$$sort(-132,-15+11-14)$$

Add -15 and 11 to get -4.

$$sort(-132,-4-14)$$

Subtract 14 from -4 to get -18.

$$sort(-132,-18)$$

The list values are already in order.

$$-132,-18$$

Evaluate

$$-132,\ -18$$
