a) 10 – 12 – 8 = 10 – (12 + 8) = 10 - 20 = - 10
b) 4 – (- 15) – 5 + 6 = (4 + 6) – [(-15) + 5)] = 10 – (- 10) = 10 + 10 = 20
c) 2 – 12 – 4 – 6 = (2 – 12) - (4 + 6) = -10 + (- 10) = - 20
d) – 45 – 5 – (- 12) + 8 = - (45 + 5) + (12 + 8) = (- 50) + 20 = - 30
a) 10-12-8=2-12=-10
b) 4-(-15)-5+6=4+15-5+6=10+10=20
c) 2-12-4-6=-10-10=-20
d) -45-5-(-12)+8=-50+12+8=-50+20=-30
