1. Problem Description

We are asked to evaluate the expression (3)×4÷[(15)×(45)]-(-3) \times 4 \div [(-15) \times (-\frac{4}{5})].

2. Solution Steps

We follow the order of operations (PEMDAS/BODMAS). First, we evaluate the expression inside the brackets.
(15)×(45)=151×45=(15)×(4)1×5=605=12(-15) \times (-\frac{4}{5}) = \frac{-15}{1} \times \frac{-4}{5} = \frac{(-15) \times (-4)}{1 \times 5} = \frac{60}{5} = 12
Now the expression becomes:
(3)×4÷[12]-(-3) \times 4 \div [12]
Since dividing by [12][12] is the same as dividing by 1212, the expression becomes:
(3)×4÷12-(-3) \times 4 \div 12
Next, we have (3)-(-3). This simplifies to 33, so the expression is now:
3×4÷123 \times 4 \div 12
Multiplication and division are done from left to right. First, we multiply:
3×4=123 \times 4 = 12
So the expression becomes:
12÷1212 \div 12
Finally, we divide:
12÷12=112 \div 12 = 1
