Answer 1

You start with 110, admit ten more, and discharge 2. That is 108. I have no idea what an a&d is, unless it is and admit and immediately discharge, which changes nothing.

Answer 2

110 + 10 = 120

120 - 2 = ??

What's "a&d"??

Answer 3

the a & d is admissions and discharges together im guessing.

Answer 4

ok so if i have 110 then i admit 10 that would be 120 then you discharge 2 that would be 118 not 108 right? so the correct answer should be 118?????

Answer 5

Right. The answer is 118.
