Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Solution ,

Firstly we need to understand that

( - ) × ( - ) = ( + )

( + ) × ( + ) = ( - )

( - ) × ( + ) = ( - )

( + ) × ( - ) = ( - )

Question:

- 16 + ( - 12 ) - ( - 40 )

here ( + ) × ( - ) = ( - )

= - 16 - 12 - ( - 40 )

here ( - ) × ( - ) = ( + )

= - 28 + 40

here the ( + ) has greater variable so....

= + 12

hence 12 is the answer....
