Question

4+6(-8/3)=12

Answer 1

Something is amiss in the original problem, because the expression given here  (4+6(-8/3)=12 ) is FALSE

 

When we clear the parentheses, 6(-8/3), we get -16, which, when added to +4 yields -12 at which point our equation will be -12 = 12

 

Please check the original information.
