-(-3) since the negative sign is a one but you don't see it -1(-3) and the negatives cancel out it make the 3 positive and -(3) same thing you can't see the one so the one is negative and the three is positive three now is negative so the answer is

-(-3)

it’s - ( - 3 ) because a negative times a negative equals a positive so it wouldn’t be - ( 3 ) because it would turn into a negative number and - ( - 3 ) would be positive
