$- 33$ $-33$

$6 - (8 + 3^{3}) - 4$ $6-(8+3^3) - 4$

PEMDAS (order of operations) is shown here:

First, simplify the expression inside the parenthesis:
$6 - (8 + 27) - 4$ $6-(8+27) - 4$

$6 - 35 - 4$ $6 - 35 - 4$

Subtract from left to right:
$- 29 - 4$ $-29 - 4$

$= - 33$ $=-33$

Hope this helps!

$- 33$ $-33$

In any expression, we simplify the parenthesis first. Doing this, we get

$6 - 35 - 4$ $6-35-4$

Now, let's work left to right:

$6 - 35 = - 29$ $6-35=-29$

$- 29 - 4 = - 33$ $-29-4=-33$

Hope this helps!
