Solve 4[-3+5[-2-3(8-2)+4]-3]+2

$$4 [ - 3 + 5 [ - 2 - 3 ( 8 - 2 ) + 4 ] - 3 ] + 2$$

Evaluate

$$-342$$

Solution Steps

Subtract 2 from 8 to get 6.

$$4\left(-3+5\left(-2-3\times 6+4\right)-3\right)+2$$

Multiply 3 and 6 to get 18.

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

Subtract 18 from -2 to get -20.

$$4\left(-3+5\left(-20+4\right)-3\right)+2$$

Add -20 and 4 to get -16.

$$4\left(-3+5\left(-16\right)-3\right)+2$$

Multiply 5 and -16 to get -80.

$$4\left(-3-80-3\right)+2$$

Subtract 80 from -3 to get -83.

$$4\left(-83-3\right)+2$$

Subtract 3 from -83 to get -86.

$$4\left(-86\right)+2$$

Multiply 4 and -86 to get -344.

$$-344+2$$

Add -344 and 2 to get -342.

$$-342$$

Factor
