Solve 2(-2+11)-5-(-2+(-3+5)-4-(2+2)]

$$2 ( - 2 + 11 ) - 5 - ( - 2 + ( - 3 + 5 ) - 4 - ( 2 + 2 ) ]$$

Evaluate

$$21$$

Solution Steps

Add -2 and 11 to get 9.

$$2\times 9-5-\left(-2-3+5-4-\left(2+2\right)\right)$$

Multiply 2 and 9 to get 18.

$$18-5-\left(-2-3+5-4-\left(2+2\right)\right)$$

Subtract 5 from 18 to get 13.

$$13-\left(-2-3+5-4-\left(2+2\right)\right)$$

Subtract 3 from -2 to get -5.

$$13-\left(-5+5-4-\left(2+2\right)\right)$$

Add -5 and 5 to get 0.

$$13-\left(-4-\left(2+2\right)\right)$$

Add 2 and 2 to get 4.

$$13-\left(-4-4\right)$$

Subtract 4 from -4 to get -8.

$$13-\left(-8\right)$$

The opposite of -8 is 8.

$$13+8$$

Add 13 and 8 to get 21.

$$21$$

Factor

$$3\times 7$$
