Question

There were no additional prenetheses in this problem.

Answer 1

I think the solution is -60. Can someone tell me if I am right?

Answer 2

Without knowing how it was originally written there's no way to know. Was it a word problem just like that, or was it written out as a formula, e.g.
\[\frac{10-16}{4}*2-2(3)-4\]
or
\[\frac{10-16}{4*2}-2(3)-4\]

etc?

Answer 3

\[10-16\div4\times2-2(3)-4\]

Answer 4

If it's written like that, then you need to use PEMDAS.

Where are you getting that extra parentheses from? You're totally changing the equation.
