Answer:

The correct answer is C. 3 (-64 ÷ 8) + 25

Explanation:

Let's solve the four expressions to find out the positive one, this way:

A. - 4 + (-5) (-6) ÷ (-3)

= -4 + 30 ÷ -3

= - 4 - 10 = - 14

B. 8 [10 ÷ (2) (-2)]

= 8 [10 ÷ -4]

= 8 * - 2.5 = -20

C. 3 ( -64 ÷ 8) + 25

= 3 ( -8) + 25

= - 24 + 25 = 1

D. -2 (-5) (-3) ÷ 10

= - 30 ÷ 10 = -3

As we can see, after solving the four expressions, the only with a positive result is C. 3 ( -64 ÷ 8) + 25
