Question

(-4 × 6) + 8
--------------
-2
Select one of the options below as your answer: A. -16 B. -8 C. 8 D. 16

Answer 1

Where are you having trouble? This one seems really simple and calculator math to me, what's the problem?

Answer 2

Do the operation inside the parentheses first, then remove the parentheses, then calculate for the numerator..then divide that result with the denominator

Answer 3

24+8=32\[\div\]-2= -16, right?

Answer 4

You have the right idea, but your answer is wrong. You lost the negative from the 4. When multiplying or dividing with negatives one negative = negative answer, two negatives = positive answer. This only has one negative, and since it was your first step it completely changes your answer.
