Solve (-5+(3-7)-(-3+(11-20)-(3-17))

$$(-5+(3-7)-(-3+(11-20)-(3-17))$$

Evaluate

$$-11$$

Solution Steps

Add -5 and 3 to get -2.

$$-2-7-\left(-3+11-20-\left(3-17\right)\right)$$

Subtract 7 from -2 to get -9.

$$-9-\left(-3+11-20-\left(3-17\right)\right)$$

Add -3 and 11 to get 8.

$$-9-\left(8-20-\left(3-17\right)\right)$$

Subtract 20 from 8 to get -12.

$$-9-\left(-12-\left(3-17\right)\right)$$

Subtract 17 from 3 to get -14.

$$-9-\left(-12-\left(-14\right)\right)$$

The opposite of -14 is 14.

$$-9-\left(-12+14\right)$$

Add -12 and 14 to get 2.

$$-9-2$$

Subtract 2 from -9 to get -11.

$$-11$$

Factor
