geerky42 (geerky42):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

idk @geerky42

OpenStudy (black_ninja123):

do -8 divided by 4

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so -2

OpenStudy (black_ninja123):

yes and now -2-5

OpenStudy (anonymous):

umm +3?

OpenStudy (black_ninja123):

wait one sec

OpenStudy (anonymous):

kk

OpenStudy (black_ninja123):

-2 - 5 is not 3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

youre suppose to do -8 divided by 4 which will equal 2. Then you must do -3 + -2 which will equal -5 and then you add -5 + -5 making your final answer be -10. :-)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what is it?

OpenStudy (black_ninja123):

-7

OpenStudy (black_ninja123):

-7 + -3=-10

OpenStudy (black_ninja123):

-10 is your answer

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thanks
