Explain how you can use chips to determine the sum

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem using chips; Check out the analogy below:

       4 + (- 8)

Chips are used for doing integer arithmetic like this.

  We have positive number 4

                  Negative number -8

 Problem is their sum ?

   We represent a chip by ()

Positive chip -  (+)

Negative chip -   (-)

           4      +      (-8)

      (+)  (+)         (-) (-)     =    0

      (+)  (+)         (-) (-)      =   0

                          (-) (-)

                           (-) (-)

Note (+) + (-)  = 0

We now have a net 4(-) chips and our answer is -4

i you goofed up when writing this, because hnot is not a word minusf is not either. i cannot answer   because of that.
