You added 4 to 11 instead of subtracting it

#

so the addition becomes a minus when i solved whatever was in the parenthese?

You got 225-4+11-7 which is 221+4 or 225

So this would be the right way to solve it ?

You must evaluate addition and subtraction from left to right, so on step 3 you subtract 4 from 225, then you add 11, and finally you subtract 7. The order is important.
