The correct answer is C) -6.

To solve the equation, we need to do the addition and subtraction operations in order.

6 + 10 - ___ = 6

First, we add 6 and 10:

6 + 10 = 16

Now, we substitute the sum back into the equation:

16 - ___ = 6

To find the missing number, we need to subtract 6 from 16:

16 - 6 = 10

Therefore, the missing number is 10.

However, the question asks for the value that will make the equation true, not the missing number.

So, if we substitute 10 back into the original equation:

6 + 10 - 10 = 6

The resulting equation is:

6 + 0 = 6

Which is true.

Hence, the correct answer is C) -6, as subtracting -6 from 6 would also make the equation true.

To solve the equation 6 + 10 - ___ = 6, we need to determine the value of the blank space.

We can rearrange the equation to isolate the blank space:

6 + 10 - ___ = 6

Rearranging, we get:

10 - ___ = 6 - 6

The right side simplifies to 0, so the equation becomes:

10 - ___ = 0

To determine the value of the blank space, we need to subtract 10 from both sides of the equation:

10 - 10 - ___ = 0 - 10

This simplifies to:

- ___ = -10

Therefore, the value in the blank space is -10.

So, the correct answer is D) -10.

To solve this equation, we need to fill in the missing value denoted by the underscore.

The given equation is: 6 + 10 - ___ = 6

To isolate the missing value, we will perform the necessary operations step by step.

First, we add 6 and 10:
6 + 10 = 16

Now, we substitute this value back into the equation:
16 - ___ = 6

To solve for the missing value, we need to subtract the known value from both sides of the equation.

Subtracting 6 from both sides:
16 - 6 = 6 - 6
=> 10 = 0

Therefore, the missing value is 0, which means that the correct answer is D) -10.
