i like your spin in this question. the subsequent time i decide on some to do something for me or supply me the only available answer i visit ask them to simplify it for me.... heavily, in case you have paran. start up interior and artwork your way out. Thereforel the 1st step makes it -6(89+fifty six) 2nd step is -6*a hundred forty five answer or as you say simplification is -870
If you simplify -(-(-6)), the answer would be -6 because a negative times a negative is positive and if you multiply it by another negative, it's a positive.
just remember if you have an even number of negatives like 2,4,6,8, then the negatives cancel each oterh out. but an odd number of negatives simplifies to a negative

Verified answer
even number of negatives yields positive result
odd
number of negatives yields negative result
Therefore -6 is correct
–(–(–6) = –1(–1(–6) = –1*(–1*–6) = -1*6 = -6

-6. Multiplying two negatives make a positive. Multiply it by another negative and you get negative again.
this rule is only for division and multiplication.
- x - = +
+ x + = +
- x + = -
By the way the answer is (-6).You have to apply the rule twice.
