1. The problem is to write the expression $4x3 \times \frac{2}{-3} - (-1) \times 3 \times (-3) \times 2$ in proper mathematical format. 2. First, interpret the expression carefully: - $4x3$ means $4 \times 3$ - $\frac{2}{-3}$ is a fraction with numerator 2 and denominator -3 - $-(-1)$ means subtracting negative one, which is adding 1 - The rest are multiplications 3. Writing the expression properly with multiplication signs and parentheses for clarity: $$4 \times 3 \times \frac{2}{-3} - (-1) \times 3 \times (-3) \times 2$$ 4. This is the properly formatted expression as requested.
