    At midnight in Winnipeg, the temperature was −23°C. During the next 24 hours, the temperature rose 12°C, then dropped 8°C. What was the final temperature?

    We start with −23°C

    Temperatures rising 12°C mean we add:
    -23 + 12 = -11

    Temperatures dropping 8°C mean we subtract:
    -11 - 8 = -19°C
