The value of `(70) + (-49) + (-58) + (-32)` is

Options

A. `69`
B. `70`
C. `-69`
D. `-70`

Answer

To find the value of \( (70) + (-49) + (-58) + (-32) \), we can follow these steps:

### Step 1: Rewrite the expression
We start with the expression:
\[ 70 + (-49) + (-58) + (-32) \]
This can be rewritten as:
\[ 70 - 49 - 58 - 32 \]

### Step 2: Combine the negative numbers
Next, we will combine the negative numbers:
\[ -49 - 58 - 32 \]

First, we add \( 49 \), \( 58 \), and \( 32 \):
\[ 49 + 58 = 107 \]
Now, add \( 107 + 32 \):
\[ 107 + 32 = 139 \]
So, we have:
\[ -49 - 58 - 32 = -139 \]

### Step 3: Subtract the total of the negative numbers from 70
Now we substitute back into our expression:
\[ 70 - 139 \]

### Step 4: Perform the subtraction
To perform the subtraction:
\[ 70 - 139 \]
Since \( 139 \) is greater than \( 70 \), we will have a negative result. We can calculate it as follows:
\[ 139 - 70 = 69 \]
Thus, we have:
\[ 70 - 139 = -69 \]

### Final Answer
The value of \( (70) + (-49) + (-58) + (-32) \) is:
\[ \boxed{-69} \]
