Answer:

[tex]-\dfrac{69}{14}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Substitute the given values of the variables into the given expression:

[tex]\implies \dfrac{60 \left(\dfrac{1}{3}\right)\left(-\dfrac{1}{5}\right)\left(\dfrac{1}{4}\right)\left(\dfrac{1}{3}-\dfrac{1}{5}+\dfrac{1}{4}\right)}{\left(\dfrac{1}{3}-\dfrac{1}{5}\right)\left(\dfrac{1}{3}+\dfrac{1}{4}\right)}[/tex]

When multiplying fractions, simply multiply the numerators and the denominators:

[tex]\implies \dfrac{60 \left(\dfrac{1 \cdot -1 \cdot 1}{3\cdot 5 \cdot 4}\right)\left(\dfrac{1}{3}-\dfrac{1}{5}+\dfrac{1}{4}\right)}{\left(\dfrac{1}{3}-\dfrac{1}{5}\right)\left(\dfrac{1}{3}+\dfrac{1}{4}\right)}[/tex]

[tex]\implies \dfrac{60 \left(-\dfrac{1}{60}\right)\left(\dfrac{1}{3}-\dfrac{1}{5}+\dfrac{1}{4}\right)}{\left(\dfrac{1}{3}-\dfrac{1}{5}\right)\left(\dfrac{1}{3}+\dfrac{1}{4}\right)}[/tex]

[tex]\implies \dfrac{\left(-1\right)\left(\dfrac{1}{3}-\dfrac{1}{5}+\dfrac{1}{4}\right)}{\left(\dfrac{1}{3}-\dfrac{1}{5}\right)\left(\dfrac{1}{3}+\dfrac{1}{4}\right)}[/tex]

When adding or subtracting fractions, make the denominators the same:

[tex]\implies \dfrac{\left(-1\right)\left(\dfrac{20}{60}-\dfrac{12}{60}+\dfrac{15}{60}\right)}{\left(\dfrac{5}{15}-\dfrac{3}{15}\right)\left(\dfrac{4}{12}+\dfrac{3}{12}\right)}[/tex]

Now add the numerators and put that over the denominator:

[tex]\implies \dfrac{\left(-1\right)\left(\dfrac{20-12+15}{60}\right)}{\left(\dfrac{5-3}{15}\right)\left(\dfrac{4+3}{12}\right)}[/tex]

[tex]\implies \dfrac{\left(-1\right)\left(\dfrac{23}{60}\right)}{\left(\dfrac{2}{15}\right)\left(\dfrac{7}{12}\right)}[/tex]

Again, multiply the fractions:

[tex]\implies \dfrac{\left(-1 \cdot \dfrac{23}{60}\right)}{\left(\dfrac{2 \cdot 7}{15 \cdot 12}\right)}[/tex]

[tex]\implies \dfrac{-\dfrac{23}{60}}{\dfrac{14}{180}}[/tex]

To divide the fractions, turn the second fraction upside down, then multiply it by the first fraction:

[tex]\implies -\dfrac{23}{60} \cdot \dfrac{180}{14}[/tex]

[tex]\implies -\dfrac{4140}{840}[/tex]

Finally, simplify:

[tex]\implies -\dfrac{4140 \div 60}{840 \div 60}[/tex]

[tex]\implies -\dfrac{69}{14}[/tex]
