Solve 60+{2*[7+18-(14-8)]}-173-18-2+13

$$60 + \{ 2 \cdot [ 7 + 18 - ( 14 - 8 ) ] \} - 173 - 18 - 2 + 13$$

Evaluate

$$-82$$

Solution Steps

Add 7 and 18 to get 25.

$$60+2\left(25-\left(14-8\right)\right)-173-18-2+13$$

Subtract 8 from 14 to get 6.

$$60+2\left(25-6\right)-173-18-2+13$$

Subtract 6 from 25 to get 19.

$$60+2\times 19-173-18-2+13$$

Multiply 2 and 19 to get 38.

$$60+38-173-18-2+13$$

Add 60 and 38 to get 98.

$$98-173-18-2+13$$

Subtract 173 from 98 to get -75.

$$-75-18-2+13$$

Subtract 18 from -75 to get -93.

$$-93-2+13$$

Subtract 2 from -93 to get -95.

$$-95+13$$

Add -95 and 13 to get -82.
