how do you simplify this expression

-12/3*(-8+(-4)^2-6)+2
Plzzz Help plzz!!

Can someone plz say all the answers. 🙏

I get your parentheses right

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

-12/3 = -4

-4* 2 = -8

-8 + 2 = -6

Yay Thxxx!!

You are welcome.

To simplify the given expression, follow the order of operations (also known as PEMDAS) which stands for Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication and Division (from left to right), and Addition and Subtraction (from left to right).

Step 1: Evaluate parentheses:
-12/3*(-8+(-4)^2-6)+2
-12/3*(-8+(16)-6)+2

Step 2: Simplify the exponent:
-12/3*(-8+16-6)+2
-12/3*(-8+10)+2

Step 3: Perform addition and subtraction from left to right inside the parentheses:
-12/3*(2)+2

Step 4: Perform the division:
-4*(2)+2

Step 5: Perform the multiplication:
-8+2

Step 6: Perform the addition:
-6

Therefore, the simplified expression is -6.

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

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