Question
Use the number line and add the following integers:
5 + (-2) + (-6)
5 + (-2) + (-6)
✓
Answer
On the number line, we start from 0 and move 5 steps to the right to reach point A. Now, starting from A, we move 2 steps to the left to reach point B. Again, starting from B, we move 6 steps to the left to reach point C.
C represents the integer -3
Therefore, 5 + (-2) + (-6) = -3
C represents the integer -3
Therefore, 5 + (-2) + (-6) = -3
