4. Find the sum of: (a) 137 and – 354
(b) – 52 and 52

(d) – 50, – 200 and 300
Answers
Answer:
(a) 137 and -354
(137) + (-354) = (137) + (-137) + (-217)
= 0 + (-217) [(137) + (-137) = 0]
= (-217)
= -217
(b) -52 and 52
(-52) + (+52) = 0 [(-a) + (+a) = 0]
(c) -312, 39 and 192
(-312) + (+39) + (+192) = (-231) + (-81) + (+39) + (+192)
= (-231) + (-81) + (+231)
= (-231) + (+231) + (-81)
= 0 + (-81) [(-a) + (+a) = 0]
= -81
(d) -50, -200 and 300
(-50) + (-200) + (+300) = (-50) + (-200) + (+200) + (+100)
= (-50) + 0 + (+100) [(-a) + (+a) = 0]
= (-50) + (+100)
= (-50) + (+50) + (+50)
= 0 + (+50) [(-a) + (+a) = 0]
= 50
hope it helps you please make me as brainist

(a) 137 and 354
137 + (-354)
= 137-354
Taking - common
=-(-137 +354)
= -(354-137)
= -217

(b)-52 and 52
-52 +52
= 52-52
= 0
(c)-312, 39 and 192
-312 +39 + 192
=-312 + (192 +39)
= -312 +231

= -(312-231)

(d)-50,- 200 and 300
- 50 + (-200) + 300
=-50-200 + 300
= (300-200) - 50
= 100-50
= 50
