There are both positive and negative values in the given set of numbers to be added. The sum is obtained as follows.
(1) First, the positive numbers are to be added. Here, there is only one positive number which is 412.
(2) Add the negative values together as follows. As per the rules of addition, to add negative values, the sum of the absolute values is first found and then the negative sign is applied to the result.
(3) Now, combine the result obtained from adding positive and negative numbers to obtain the final sum. The sign of the resultant sum is that of the sign of greatest among the individual numbers.
Here it is the sum of 412 and -324 which can be calculated as follows.
