how would grouping symbols (parentheses) make this equation true

Question

having trouble determining where to put parentheses to make this equation true:

6-9+8^2*1+5=-96

Answer 1

6-9+8^2*1+5=-96 NOT TRUE

Using PEMDAS

1)Put parenthesis around 8^2

6-9+(8^2)*1+5 = -96

2)Squaring 8 gives 64

6-9+(64)*1+5 = -96

3)Next put parenthesis around multiplication

6-9+(64*1)+5 = -96

4)Multiplying the expression gives you 64

6-9+64+5 = -96

5)Put parenthesis around addition

6-9+(64+5) = -96

6)Adding the numbers

6-9+69 = -96

7)using subtraction

-3+69 = -96

8)Adding again

66 = -96 NOT TRUE
