Can you solve this by just adding brackets?

6-5-4-3=4.

Honestly, it's bad when I can't even help my 11 year old with his homework. :o
 
There's a series of different questions with different possible answers. We've already got the correct answer for 2 and -6 and 8. It's the 4 we can't get.

Err must be a mistake.. can't see how to get 4, maybe 8?
6-(5-4-3)=8

6+(5-4-3) would be 4. Basically 6-2, but I can't see how the original could possibly work with just brackets.
