Required figure is attached in the picture below :

Answer:

2

Explanation:

Number of cards = 3

The number on first two cards are :

Card 1 = 4 ; card 2 = - 6

Number that must be on the third card to obtain a total score of 0

Represent third number by a variable, x

Sum of all 3 numbers equal 0

(4 + (-6) + x) = 0

4 - 6 + x = 0

-2 + x = 0

Add 2 to both sides :

-2 + x + 2 = 0 + 2

x = 2

Hence, value of the third card must be 2
