Step-by-step explanation:
remember PEMDAS
our equation looks like tihs: 
1. parentheses: in the denominator we have a parentese inside of another parenthese, so start with the inside first: (3-5) = -2.
so now our equation looks liek this 
now we have a mini PEMDAS situation within the parentheses: multiplication comes before addition/subtraction, so multiply -2*2 = -4, so now your equation looks like this:
6-4 =2: so now we're done with parentheses part of PEMDAS, the only thing left is dividing 80/2 which equals 40.
