You asked:

Evaluate the expression: \(9 - \frac{3 \cdot \left(2 + 6\right)}{6} - 2 \cdot 5\)

MathBot Answer:

\[9 - \frac{3 \cdot \left(2 + 6\right)}{6} - 2 \cdot 5 = -5\]


\[\begin{aligned}9 - \frac{3 \cdot \left(2 + 6\right)}{6} - 2 \cdot 5& = 9 - 3 \cdot \left(2 + 6\right) \cdot \frac{1}{6} - 2 \cdot 5\\& = 9 - 3 \cdot \frac{8}{6} - 2 \cdot 5\\& = 9 - 3 \cdot \frac{4}{3} - 2 \cdot 5\\& = 9 - 4 - 2 \cdot 5\\& = 9 - 4 - 10\\& = 5 - 10\\& = -5\end{aligned}\]
