Answer:

$\Huge \boxed{20}$

Explanation:

This question is about order of operations. It stands for parenthesis, exponent, multiply, divide, add, and subtract from left to right.

First thing you do is parenthesis.

$\displaystyle [2-6]=-4$

$\displaystyle -4-[-24]$

Then, add and subtract numbers from left to right to find the answer.

$\displaystyle -4-[-24]$

$\displaystyle -4-[-24]=-4+24=20$

20, which is our answer.

Hope this helps!
