Solve (|-12:4-3|+9):(-5)-(-3)=

$$( | - 12 : 4 - 3 | + 9 ) : ( - 5 ) - ( - 3 ) =$$

Evaluate

$$0$$

Solution Steps

Divide -12 by 4 to get -3.

$$\frac{|-3-3|+9}{-5}-\left(-3\right)$$

Subtract 3 from -3 to get -6.

$$\frac{|-6|+9}{-5}-\left(-3\right)$$

The absolute value of a real number a is a when a\geq 0, or -a when a<0. The absolute value of -6 is 6.

$$\frac{6+9}{-5}-\left(-3\right)$$

Add 6 and 9 to get 15.

$$\frac{15}{-5}-\left(-3\right)$$

Divide 15 by -5 to get -3.

$$-3-\left(-3\right)$$

The opposite of -3 is 3.

$$-3+3$$

Add -3 and 3 to get 0.

$$0$$

Factor

$$0$$
