Question

Simply 3 + 63/-3 - 4 (-3)

Answer 1

To simplify the expression \( 3 + \frac{63}{-3} - 4(-3) \), follow these steps:

1. First, calculate \( \frac{63}{-3} \):
\[
\frac{63}{-3} = -21
\]

2. Then, calculate \( -4(-3) \):
\[
-4(-3) = 12
\]

3. Now substitute these values back into the expression:
\[
3 - 21 + 12
\]

4. Perform the addition and subtraction from left to right:
- First calculate \( 3 - 21 \):
\[
3 - 21 = -18
\]
- Then add \( 12 \):
\[
-18 + 12 = -6
\]

The simplified value of the expression is \(-6\).
