Question 86263
(-1/4) -2 * (3/4) -5 * -3
Comment:
The rule is 
"perform multiplication and division from left to right"
After doing that
"perform addition and subtraction from left to right"
-----------
Your Problem:
= (-1/4) - (3/2) + 15
That takes care of multiplication and division.
= (-1/4) - (6/4) + 15
= (-7/4) + 15
= 13 1/4
That takes care of addition and subtraction
