1. Problem Description

The problem is to evaluate the expression (24)×(12)÷8×16 -(-24) \times (-12) \div 8 \times \frac{1}{6}.

2. Solution Steps

We follow the order of operations (PEMDAS/BODMAS). In this case, we have multiplication and division, which we perform from left to right.
First, we evaluate (24)-(-24), which is equal to 2424.
So, the expression becomes 24×(12)÷8×1624 \times (-12) \div 8 \times \frac{1}{6}.
Next, we multiply 2424 by 12-12:
24×(12)=28824 \times (-12) = -288.
So, the expression becomes 288÷8×16-288 \div 8 \times \frac{1}{6}.
Now, we divide 288-288 by 88:
288÷8=36-288 \div 8 = -36.
So, the expression becomes 36×16-36 \times \frac{1}{6}.
Finally, we multiply 36-36 by 16\frac{1}{6}:
36×16=366=6-36 \times \frac{1}{6} = -\frac{36}{6} = -6.

3. Final Answer

The final answer is -6.
