Question

How do i solve -12 divided by 3 multiplied (-8+(-4)exponent 2 -6)+2

Answer 1

you could always try using math symbols instead of words, as a start. It appears you mean

-12/3*(-8+(-4)^2-6)+2

Inside each group of parentheses, do powers, then multiply/divide, then add/subtract. So, step by step we get

-12/3*(-8+(-4)^2-6)+2
-12/3*(-8+16-6)+2
-12/3*(8-6)+2
-12/3*2+2
-4*2+2
-8+2
-6
