A toy car is placed at 0 on a number lineit moves 8 cm to the left then 4 cm to the right and then 6 cm to the left. What is the total distance the car moved?
Because the question asks for the total distance moved the fact that the car is on a number line is irrelevant. So all you have to do is 8+4+6 which adds up to 18. and the units are all in cm so the final answer is 18 cm.
