Final answer:

To find the sum or difference of the given numbers, subtract or add them accordingly in the given order.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the sum or difference of the given numbers, we simply add or subtract them in order.

  1. 49.25 - 87.50 = -38.25
  2. -38.25 - 18.24 = -56.49
  3. -56.49 - 12.18 = -68.67
  4. -68.67 + 11.14 = -57.53
  5. -57.53 - (-9.3) = -57.53 + 9.3 = -48.23
