Question

What is the answer for 23-2|2-4(3-6)|

Answer 1

use PEMDAS

The numbers in the absolute value symbols are what you need to solve first:

I2-4(3-6)I

I2-4(-3)I                  simplify the parentheses

I2+12I                     multiply -4 and -3

I14I                         add the terms 2 and 12

14                           simplify 14 with the absolute value symbols

Now solve what's on the outside of the absolute value symbols:

23-2

21              subtract and simplify 23 and -2

Finally, multiply the two terms we have made, 14 and 21:

14 * 21 = 294

Your final answer should be 294.
