Question

During a football game, Kevin gained five yards on the first play. Then he lost seven yards on the second play. How many yards does Kevin need on the next play to get the team back to where they were when they started?

Answer 1

Two yards. You start with five then you lose seven so you have negative two. So you would need two yards.

Answer 2

Answer: Two yards.

Step-by-step explanation: They started at 0 yards, gained 5, and lost 7. That would put them at -2, so they would need 2 yards to get back to 0.
