Solve 5*8-29/-7-(24/-6-8)*3

$$5 \cdot \frac { 8 - 29 } { - 7 } - ( \frac { 24 } { - 6 } - 8 ) \cdot 3$$

Evaluate

$$51$$

Solution Steps

Subtract 29 from 8 to get -21.

$$5\times \frac{-21}{-7}-\left(\frac{24}{-6}-8\right)\times 3$$

Divide -21 by -7 to get 3.

$$5\times 3-\left(\frac{24}{-6}-8\right)\times 3$$

Multiply 5 and 3 to get 15.

$$15-\left(\frac{24}{-6}-8\right)\times 3$$

Divide 24 by -6 to get -4.

$$15-\left(-4-8\right)\times 3$$

Subtract 8 from -4 to get -12.

$$15-\left(-12\times 3\right)$$

Multiply -12 and 3 to get -36.

$$15-\left(-36\right)$$

The opposite of -36 is 36.

$$15+36$$

Add 15 and 36 to get 51.

$$51$$

Factor

$$3\times 17$$
