Hopefully you know that the parentheses indicate that you should multiply the numbers. It really doesn’t matter what order you do it in because the answer will be the same no matter what. I would just multiply them however is simplest for you. I first did (-3)(+1)=-3 because multiplying anything by +1 will always stay the same. Next multiply (-3)(-2)=6. This is because 2x3=6 and a negative times a negative is always a positive. Next (6)(-14)=-84 because multiplying a positive by a negative always gets you a negative number. The answer is -84
Because it takes 4 days to make 20 small frames, it takes 8 days to make 40. And because it takes 3 days to make 21 frames, and 21 multiplied by 3 is 63 (one less than 64), it would take 9 days (3 times the amount for 21) to make 64 large frames. In all, it would take APPROXIMATELY 17 days (9 +8 is 17)
