Solve 96-{10+4[-3+8-(11-15)(10-6)]}

$$96 - \{ 10 + 4 [ - 3 + 8 - ( 11 - 15 ) ( 10 - 6 ) ] \}$$

Evaluate

$$2$$

Solution Steps

Add -3 and 8 to get 5.

$$96-\left(10+4\left(5-\left(11-15\right)\left(10-6\right)\right)\right)$$

Subtract 15 from 11 to get -4.

$$96-\left(10+4\left(5-\left(-4\left(10-6\right)\right)\right)\right)$$

Subtract 6 from 10 to get 4.

$$96-\left(10+4\left(5-\left(-4\times 4\right)\right)\right)$$

Multiply -4 and 4 to get -16.

$$96-\left(10+4\left(5-\left(-16\right)\right)\right)$$

The opposite of -16 is 16.

$$96-\left(10+4\left(5+16\right)\right)$$

Add 5 and 16 to get 21.

$$96-\left(10+4\times 21\right)$$

Multiply 4 and 21 to get 84.

$$96-\left(10+84\right)$$

Add 10 and 84 to get 94.

$$96-94$$

Subtract 94 from 96 to get 2.

$$2$$

Factor
