- ( - 1 ) + 5 - ( - 6 ) - 5

The opposite of -1 is 1.


1+5-\left(-6\right)-5

Add 1 and 5 to get 6.


6-\left(-6\right)-5

The opposite of -6 is 6.


6+6-5

Add 6 and 6 to get 12.


12-5

Subtract 5 from 12 to get 7.


= \huge \boxed{ \boxed{ \bf \: 7}}

  • The correct answer is 7. However, you haven't provided 7 as an option. It might have happened due to a typo error from your side or your teacher's side. Kindly check that.
