Solution

The correct option is A 1
First solve the brackets and then perform addition or subtraction to get the result.

When the sign inside the bracket and outside the bracket is same, then it results in a plus sign. This can be seen in following ways.

- 23 - (- 17) - (- 7)
= -23 + 17 +7
= -23 + 24
= 1
