Just simplify and see !!!!!!! I got A -10 + (-9 ) > 3+ (-25) = -19> -22 When the negative charge decreases the value of it increases as it is getting closer to the positive side. So when u have a greater negative value and smaller negative value the We consider that the greater negative value is smaller than the smaller one. So the answer is A
