Follow the PEMDAS order of operations

Calculate within parentheses

[13 - (- 7)] : 20

13 - (- 7)

Add and subtract (left to right)

Apply rule

- (- a) = + a

- (- 7) = + 7

= 13 + 7

13 + 7 = 20

= 20

= 12 - 20 \div (- 5)

Multiply and divide (left to right)

20 \div (- 5) : - 4

20 \div (- 5)

Apply rule

a \div (- b) = - a \div b

20 \div (- 5) = - 20 \div 5 = - 4

= - 4

= 12 - (- 4)

Add and subtract (left to right)

12 - (- 4) : 16

12 - (- 4)

Apply rule

- (- a) = + a

- (- 4) = + 4

= 12 + 4

12 + 4 = 16

= 16

= 16

(- 5) (3) - (2) (- 6) + (- 4) (2)

(1 \frac{1}{3} + 3 \frac{2}{4}) - 2 \frac{2}{3}

- 9 + 6 - 54 \div (- 6) + (- 4) \times (- 8)

(12 - 5)^{2} + (- 18) \times 4

\frac{- 2 - ( - 2 )}{- 7 - ( - 3 )}
