Solve (-169):[-8+3*(-4)-7*(-1)^23]=

$$( - 169 ) : [ - 8 + 3 \cdot ( - 4 ) - 7 \cdot ( - 1 ) ^ { 23 } ] =$$

Evaluate

$$13$$

Solution Steps

Multiply 3 and -4 to get -12.

$$\frac{-169}{-8-12-7\left(-1\right)^{23}}$$

Subtract 12 from -8 to get -20.

$$\frac{-169}{-20-7\left(-1\right)^{23}}$$

Calculate -1 to the power of 23 and get -1.

$$\frac{-169}{-20-7\left(-1\right)}$$

Multiply 7 and -1 to get -7.

$$\frac{-169}{-20-\left(-7\right)}$$

The opposite of -7 is 7.

$$\frac{-169}{-20+7}$$

Add -20 and 7 to get -13.

$$\frac{-169}{-13}$$

Divide -169 by -13 to get 13.

$$13$$

Factor

$$13$$
