To solve the equation [7(8-4)+16]-[15-(7-8)], we can follow the order of operations, also known as PEMDAS (Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication and Division, Addition and Subtraction).
1. Start by simplifying the expressions inside the parentheses:
[7(8-4)+16]-[15-(7-8)]
[7(4)+16]-[15-(7-8)]
[28+16]-[15-(7-8)]
2. Next, simplify any expressions within brackets:
[28+16]-[15-(7-8)]
[28+16]-[15-(-1)]
3. Continue by evaluating the expression inside the brackets:
[28+16]-[15-(-1)]
[28+16]-[15+1]
4. Simplify any remaining additions and subtractions:
[28+16]-[15+1]
[44]-[16]
5. Finally, perform the subtraction:
[44]-[16]
44 - 16 = 28
So the final answer is 28.
