1. Problem Description

The problem is to evaluate the following expression: 5[6.4{5.5+2(2.8+3.62.1)}]÷45[6.4 - \{5.5 + 2(2.8 + 3.6 - 2.1)\}] \div 4. We need to follow the order of operations (PEMDAS/BODMAS).

2. Solution Steps

First, we solve the innermost parentheses:
2.8+3.62.1=6.42.1=4.32.8 + 3.6 - 2.1 = 6.4 - 2.1 = 4.3
Now, we substitute this result back into the expression:
5[6.4{5.5+2(4.3)}]÷45[6.4 - \{5.5 + 2(4.3)\}] \div 4
Next, we perform the multiplication within the curly braces:
2(4.3)=8.62(4.3) = 8.6
Substitute this result back into the expression:
5[6.4{5.5+8.6}]÷45[6.4 - \{5.5 + 8.6\}] \div 4
Now, we solve the addition within the curly braces:
5.5+8.6=14.15.5 + 8.6 = 14.1
Substitute this result back into the expression:
5[6.414.1]÷45[6.4 - 14.1] \div 4
Next, we perform the subtraction within the square brackets:
6.414.1=7.76.4 - 14.1 = -7.7
Substitute this result back into the expression:
5[7.7]÷45[-7.7] \div 4
Now, we perform the multiplication:
5(7.7)=38.55(-7.7) = -38.5
Substitute this result back into the expression:
38.5÷4-38.5 \div 4
Finally, we perform the division:
38.5÷4=9.625-38.5 \div 4 = -9.625

3. Final Answer

-9.625
