To simplify the expression, follow the order of operations (parentheses first, then multiplication/division, and finally addition/subtraction).

First, simplify the expression inside the parentheses: 1 - 15 = -14.

Next, perform the multiplication: -2 * -14 = 28.

Then, perform the division: 28 ÷ 4 = 7.

Finally, subtract 7 from 13: 13 - 7 = 6.

Therefore, the simplified expression is 6.
