which is greater,sum of 72 and (-42)or the sum of (-65) and 96 ? by how much ?
form ch negative numbers and integers

Sum of 72 and −42 = 72 + (−42) = 30
Sum of −65 and 96 = −65 + 96 = 31
Therefore, the sum of −65 and 96 is greater than the sum of 72 and −42.
Now, 31 − 30 = 1
Thus, the sum of −65 and 96 is greater than the sum of 72 and −42 by 1.
