Step-by-step explanation:

First you need to remember the formula for PEMDAS(Parenthesis,exponents,multiplication,divison,addition,subtractio)

you can do either multiplication or divison whichever comes first, same with addition+subtraction.

the underlined means to simplify

1.-0.57x3/5+4/7x-1/5+2/5x-4/5

2.-1.71/5+4/7x-1/5+2/5x-4/5

3.-0.342+4/7x-1/5+2/5x-4/5

4.-0.342+0.57x-1/5+2/5x-4/5

5.-0.342+0.57x-0.2+2/5x-4/5

6.-0.342+0.114+2/5x-4/5

7.-0.342+0.114+0.4x-4/5

8.-0.342+0.114+-1.6/5

9.-0.342+0.114+-0.32

10.-0.228+-0.32=-0.548
