Answer:

0.333 (there are a lot of repeating decimals so i rounded to the hundredths for the work and the thousanths for the answer)

Explanation:


[-5/(-2-1)](-4)-[-5*-2+(-3)]/-1 is the original problem.


(-5/-3)(-4)-[10+(-3)]/-1 is that partially simplified


1.67*-4-7/-1 is that even more simplified (1.67 is really 1.6666666 repeated)


-6.67+7=0.333 is the final step. once again, the numbers with decimal points are repeating decimals rounded off. i hope this work makes sense
