Solving the operations we can see that the expression is:

-8 - 3*[36 ÷ (-6)] = -26

How to simplify the expression?

We want to simplify the next expression:

-8 - 3*[36 ÷ (-6)]

First we need to solve the thing inside brackets, we will have:

36 ÷ (-6) = 6

Then we can rewrite as:

-8 - 3*[36 ÷ (-6)] = -8 - 3*6

Now we need to solve the product:

-8 - 3*6

= -8 - 18

Now we solve the subtraction:

-8 - 18 = -26
