Answer:

When you simplify it, you get the answer of 1.

Explanation:

Order of operation rules are required that you multiply and divide before you carrying out addition and/or subtraction.

So, simplify 2/3 / (-4) first, obtaining -1/6.

Now, you have -1/6 - 1/6 + 8/6, which combines to 1 or 6/6.
