Evaluate 10 + ( -37) + ( - 38)

how do we evaluate this problem well let's get started we're going to work from left to right and we're going to need to use some of the signs for adding and subtracting positive and negative numbers okay so first we have 10 a positive 10 and a - 37 it's basically like subtraction so when you take 10 from 37 you it you get a 27 and we're going to keep the sign of the larger number now we're going to add that to a 38 and in this one it's just we're basically gonna add so let's go um 27 and 38 that equals 5 bring the one over so now we have 3 4 5 6 we have 65 Now is it going to be positive or negative whenever you add and the signs are the same you keep the sign so this will become a 65 [Music]
