Answer:

a. -29

Explanation:

The expression is:

24÷(-2)(3)+7

We can see that there is division, multiplication and addition involved. We will use the mathematical DMAS rule to solve the problem. So, division will be done first,

Division will give us:

24÷(-2)*(3)+7

= -12 * 3 + 7

After division, multiplication will be done:

Multiplication will give us:

= -36 +7

which equals to -29

So, option a is the correct answer ..
