Given the following question:

Since both are negatives and we are adding the two together:

We need 4 red chips to represent the negative four (-4)

We need 2 more red chips to present the negative two (-2)

The total sum of -4 + -2 is...

[tex]-4+-2=-6[/tex]

To represent the sum using the chips we will place "six red chips."
