Answer:

  • C. - 6 + (- 10) + (- 0.75) + (- 0.25)

Explanation:

Split each number into integer and decimals:

  • - 6.75 = - 6 + (- 0.75)
  • - 10.25 = - 10 + (- 0.25)

The sum is:

  • -6.75 + (-10.25) = Split as above
  • - 6 + (- 0.75) + (- 10) + (- 0.25) = Reorder
  • - 6 + (- 10) + (- 0.75) + (- 0.25)

Correct choice is C
