-4 + (-56)
-60

Answer: -60

Answer 2

`(12)/(-3)+(-14* 4)=-60`

Explanation:

Given : Expression 'the quotient of 12 and the opposite of 3 plus the product of the opposite 14 and 4'.

To find : Solve the expression ?

Solution :

Opposite of 3 = -3

Opposite of 14 = -14

The quotient of 12 and the opposite of 3 =
`(12)/(-3)`

The product of the opposite 14 and 4 =
`-14* 4`

The quotient of 12 and the opposite of 3 plus the product of the opposite 14 and 4 is given by,

`=(12)/(-3)+(-14* 4)`

`=-4+(-56)`

`=-4-56`

`=-60`

Therefore,
`(12)/(-3)+(-14* 4)=-60`
