Answer
Given expression:
= 19 - [4 + {16 - (12 - 2)}]
= 19 - [4 + {16 - 10}] [Removing parentheses]
= 19 - [4 + 6] [Removing braces]
= 19 - 10 [Removing square brackets]
= 9
= 19 - [4 + {16 - (12 - 2)}]
= 19 - [4 + {16 - 10}] [Removing parentheses]
= 19 - [4 + 6] [Removing braces]
= 19 - 10 [Removing square brackets]
= 9
