What is the value of (-15) - (-18) ÷ 3? ​

we know that

Applying PEMDAS

P ----> Parentheses first

E -----> Exponents (Powers and Square Roots, etc.)

MD ----> Multiplication and Division (left-to-right)

AS ----> Addition and Subtraction (left-to-right)

step 1

Solve the division first

(-18)÷ 3=-6

substitute

(-15)-(-6)

Remove the parenthesis

-15+6

-9

therefore

the answer is -9
