Understand the problem

73−(22−(−11))= 73-(22-(-11))=

2

Step-by-step solution

According to the order of operations, first we solve the exercise within parentheses:

Remember that the product of a negative by a negative gives a positive result, therefore:

−(−11)=+11 -(-11)=+11

Now we obtain the exercise:

73−(22+11)= 73-(22+11)=

We solve the exercise within parentheses:

22+11=33 22+11=33

We obtain:

73−33=40 73-33=40
