I put 4
OpenStudy (btaylor):
It is +6. Each H is +1 (total of +2), and each O is -2 (total of -8). It needs to equal zero, so only +6 will work.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Could I have just added 4 and 2? I haven't done this in so long so i forgot. -.-
OpenStudy (btaylor):
Not really. Because then you'd be forced to choose between +6 and -6.

oh trueee
