−4(−1)(4)(3)
−4(−1)(4)(3) simplifies to:
-4 * -1 * 4 * 3 = 48
To evaluate −4(−1)(4)(3), follow the order of operations which is Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication and Division (from left to right), and Addition and Subtraction (from left to right).
First, calculate −4 multiplied by −1:
−4 × −1 = 4
Next, multiply the result by 4:
4 × 4 = 16
Finally, multiply the result by 3:
16 × 3 = 48
Therefore, −4(−1)(4)(3) equals 48.
To evaluate the expression −4(−1)(4)(3), we need to perform the multiplication in the correct order.
Start by simplifying the innermost parentheses:
−4(−1)(4)(3) = −4(1)(4)(3)
Next, multiply the numbers from left to right:
−4(1)(4)(3) = (−4) * 1 * 4 * 3
Now, carry out the multiplication:
(−4) * 1 * 4 * 3 = −4 * 4 * 3
Finally, calculate the remaining multiplication:
−4 * 4 * 3 = −16 * 3
Now, multiply the two remaining numbers:
−16 * 3 = -48
Therefore, the value of −4(−1)(4)(3) is -48.
