Answer:

-2 and 21/50

Explanation:

PEMDAS says that paranthases go first, so we solve 2 and 1/5 minus 33/12. 2 and 1/5 simplifies to the improper fraction, 11/5. Then we find a common denominater between 11/5 and 33/12 to get 60. 11/5=132/60, and 33/12=165/60. (132/60)-(165/60)=-33/60. Then we multipl that by 4 and 2/5, which can simplify to the improper fraction, 22/5. (22/5)*(-33/60) is -726/300, and simplifies to -2 and 21/50. Hope this helps!
