  1. 22
  2. 23
  3. 24
  4. 25

hintHint:

When we add two numbers of different sign, we have to subtract them and assign the sign of the greatest number. Product of two negative numbers are positive.

The correct answer is: 24


    We are asked to add -36 to the difference of – 8 and – 68.
    So, the difference of – 8 and – 68 is -8-(-68)=-8+68=60. Here, -(-68)=68.
    Now, add -36 to 60, we have: -36+60=24.
    The correct answer is option option c.
