The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to follow these steps: 1. **Find the sum of -103 and 27.** \[ -103 + 27 \] Since one number is negative and the other is positive, we subtract the smaller absolute value from the larger absolute value: \[ 103 - 27 = 76 \] The larger absolute value is -103, so the result will be negative: \[ -103 + 27 = -76 \] 2. **Find the sum of -137 and -43.** \[ -137 + (-43) \] Since both numbers are negative, we add their absolute values: \[ 137 + 43 = 180 \] The result will also be negative: \[ -137 - 43 = -180 \] 3. **Subtract the sum of -137 and -43 from the sum of -103 and 27.** We need to calculate: \[ -76 - (-180) \] Subtracting a negative number is the same as adding its positive: \[ -76 + 180 \] 4. **Calculate -76 + 180.** Since 180 is greater than 76, we subtract: \[ 180 - 76 = 104 \] The result will be positive: \[ -76 + 180 = 104 \] Thus, the final answer is: \[ \boxed{104} \]
