Above is the menu at a coffee shop.
Jerry has a coupon that entitles him to a free butter croissant with the purchase of one large drink of any kind. The coupon says "limit one per coupon".
He decides to purchase a large espresso, a large cappucino, and two butter croissants. Disregarding tax, how much will he pay for them?

Simplify first by eliminating the parentheses. To do this you will need to distribute the coefficient term outside the parentheses to each term within the parentheses.

Next, combine like terms.

Add the ones digits.

Since this number is
or greater, use the tens digit as a carry over.
Add the tens digits with the carry over.

Add the hundreds digit with the carry over. The hundreds digit for the second number in the problem is zero.

Since there is no carry over and there is no thousands digit for the second number, the thousands digit of the answer is just
.
Combine all the ones digits in chronological order from thousands to the ones digits.
The answer is:

Let's break this into parts.
First, realize that adding a negative number is the same as subtracting that number:

Next, subtract the 88:

Our answer must be negative, because 88 is bigger than 84. Therefore our answer is -4
