$18$ $18$

Explanation:

$6 (9 - 6)$ $6(9-6)$

You need to expand the brackets first. If you do not know how to do this it is pretty simple: you just multiply the number outside the bracket with both numbers within. Therefore...

$6 \times 9 = 54$ $6 xx 9 = 54$

$6 \times (- 6) = - 36$ $6 xx (-6) = - 36$

So

$54 - 36 = 18$ $54 - 36 = 18$
