To solve the expression \( 46 - 33 \times 99 / 1 - 3 \), we will follow the order of operations (PEMDAS/BODMAS):
- Multiplication and Division from left to right
- Addition and Subtraction from left to right
Let's break it down step by step:
Calculate \( 33 \times 99 \): \[ 33 \times 99 = 3267 \]
Now, divide by \( 1 \): \[ 3267 / 1 = 3267 \]
Now substitute back into the expression: \[ 46 - 3267 - 3 \]
First, perform \( 46 - 3267 \): \[ 46 - 3267 = -3221 \]
Lastly, subtract \( 3 \): \[ -3221 - 3 = -3224 \]
Thus, the final answer is: \[ \boxed{-3224} \]
