The correct Answer is:
To solve the expression \( 2 - [3 - \{6 - (5 \div 4 - 3)\}] \), we will follow the order of operations, often remembered by the acronym PEMDAS (Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication and Division (from left to right), Addition and Subtraction (from left to right)). ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the innermost brackets**: Start with the round brackets \( (5 \div 4 - 3) \). \[ 5 \div 4 = 1.25 \] Now, substitute back into the expression: \[ 1.25 - 3 = -1.75 \] 2. **Substitute back into the curly brackets**: Now we have: \[ 6 - (-1.75) = 6 + 1.75 = 7.75 \] 3. **Substitute back into the square brackets**: Now we have: \[ 3 - 7.75 = -4.75 \] 4. **Final substitution into the expression**: Finally, we have: \[ 2 - (-4.75) = 2 + 4.75 = 6.75 \] The final result of the expression \( 2 - [3 - \{6 - (5 \div 4 - 3)\}] \) is \( 6.75 \). ### Summary of Steps: 1. Calculate \( 5 \div 4 \) to get \( 1.25 \). 2. Subtract \( 3 \) from \( 1.25 \) to get \( -1.75 \). 3. Subtract \( -1.75 \) from \( 6 \) to get \( 7.75 \). 4. Subtract \( 7.75 \) from \( 3 \) to get \( -4.75 \). 5. Finally, add \( 2 \) to \( -4.75 \) to get \( 6.75 \).
