To solve this expression, we can apply the properties of operations and rules for multiplying and dividing.

First, we will multiply the numbers together from left to right:

(−2) × (15) = −30

Next, we will divide the result by the next number:

−30 ÷ (23) = −1.30 (approx.)

Continuing, we will multiply the result by the next number:

−1.30 × (−56) = 72.8 (approx.)

Finally, we will divide the result by the last number:

72.8 ÷ (34) = 2.14 (approx.)

Therefore, the value of the expression is approximately 2.14.
