Answer:

-18

Explanation:

Let's break it up into two different equations to start.

First we have 0.75 * -12.

This can be written as 3/4 * 12 as well if you prefer fractions.

This gives us -9.

Now for the second equation.

-6/(2/3)

This can be written as -6/(0.6666....) if you prefer decimals.

Solving this gives us -9.

Now putting the two answers together we have -9 - (-9).

Solving this gives us an answer of -18.
