You are right.

Sorry, I kinda got confused by the Math problem structure. The answer was 68.
Answered by Ms. Sue
No. The answer is -68. It's a negative number.
Answered by Rella
-36 + 68 = 32 doesn't it? ._.
Answered by 9+10
Lol, I thought the equation is -36 + x = 32 since -36 is one of the numbers and 32 is the sum.

So -36 + x = 32
x = 68

Yes, -36 + 68 = 32
