aige played a math game and had the five cards shown below.

-16 6 -8 -1 3



Her score was the sum of the numbers on these five cards. What was paige's score?

I guess that would be -16 + 6 - 8 - 1 + 3 = ____

It would be clearer if each score was separated with a comma, i.e, -16, 6, -8, -1, 3. If you hadn't mentioned 5 cards, I would not have been able to help you.

-16 + 6 - 8 -1 + 3 = ?

I assume you can add and subtract.
