Add without using number line:

(a) 11 + (-7)

(b) (-13) + (+18)

(c) (-10) + (+19)

(d) (-250) + (+150)

(e) (-380) + (-270)

(f) (-217) + (-100)

(a)  11 + (-7)


= 11 – 7


= 4


Therefore, sum is 4


 


(b) (-13) + 18


= -13 + 18


= 5


Therefore, sum is 5


 


(c)  (-10) + 19


= -10 + 19


= 9


Therefore, sum is 9


 


(d)  (-250) + 150


= -250 + 150


= - 100


Therefore, sum is – 100


 


(e) (-380) + (-270)


= - 380 – 270


= - 650


Therefore, sum is – 650


 


(f)  (-217) + (-100)


= - 217 – 100


= - 317


Therefore, sum is -317
