Question

Find 18 + 36 + ( - 76)

Answer 1

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{ +}*-=- \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
