Question

-25 ÷ 5 - 8 =
2(3 - 5) · (4 - 1) =

Explanation:

Step1: Solve \(-25 \div 5 - 8\)

First, perform the division: \(-25 \div 5 = -5\). Then subtract 8: \(-5 - 8 = -13\).

Step2: Solve \(2[(3 - 5) \cdot (4 - 1)]\)

First, calculate the values inside the parentheses: \(3 - 5 = -2\) and \(4 - 1 = 3\). Then multiply these results: \(-2 \cdot 3 = -6\). Finally, multiply by 2: \(2 \cdot (-6) = -12\).

Answer:

For \(-25 \div 5 - 8\), the answer is \(-13\).
For \(2[(3 - 5) \cdot (4 - 1)]\), the answer is \(-12\).
