12 -- (5 -- 2) + 3
= 12 -- 3 + 3
= 12 -- (3 -- 3)
= 12 -- 0
= 12

Do the parentheses first. (5-2) = 3
12-(3)+3
12-3 comes next 12- 3 is 9
Then 9 + 3 = 12

im assumin u know what PEMDAS is aka Please Excuse My Dear Aunt Sally....ok so here it is
12-(5-2)+3
first its the parenthesis
12-(3)+3
then u have to distribute that negative sign then u have:
12-3+3
now its 9+3 which is 12
if im wrong, well i need to go back to Algebra, but im pretty sure thats right....if im the only1 w/ the answer of 12 then dont believe me lol

It Equals 12....Its order of operations. Do the paranthesis first then division pr multiplication then addition and subtraction.
