Question

$$10-(5-(4-(8-2)))$$

Evaluate

$3$

Solution Steps

Subtract $2$ from $8$ to get $6$.

$$10-\left(5-\left(4-6\right)\right)$$

Subtract $6$ from $4$ to get $-2$.

$$10-\left(5-\left(-2\right)\right)$$

The opposite of $-2$ is $2$.

$$10-\left(5+2\right)$$

Add $5$ and $2$ to get $7$.

$$10-7$$

Subtract $7$ from $10$ to get $3$.

$$3$$

Factor

$3$
