Question

find 18 + 36 + ( - 76)

Answer 1

SOLUTION

The expression given is

$18+36+(-76)$

Multiply the parenthesis with the sign in front, we have

$\begin{gathered} 18+36-76 \\ \sin ce\text{ +}\times-=- \end{gathered}$

Then we add the numbers in front

$\begin{gathered} 18+36-76_{} \\ 54-76 \end{gathered}$

then we now subtract to find the final value

$54-76=-22$

Therefore 18+36+(-76) = -22
