BODMAS RULE is used in simplification problems. The opertation are done in the following order in simplification.

B-->Bracket

D-->Division

M-->Multiplication

A-->Addition

S-->Subtraction


\begin{gathered} (10^2-8^2)/(5+7)-6 \\ =(100-64)/(12)-6\text{ (Did operations inside brackets)} \\ =36/12-6\text{ } \\ =3-6\text{ (Did division 36 }/\text{ 12)} \\ =-3 \end{gathered}

Therefore, the answer is -3.
