Answer 1

First add were going to add, so  9 + 2,512 = 2,521 

Then we're going to take away the 56 points that were lost so, 2,521 - 56 = 2,465


There's your answer 2,465

Answer 2

So i do believe if you just do 2512+9
This gives you 2521. Since on wednesday it lost 56 pts, subtract 56 from 2521.
This gives you 2465. I'm pretty sure this'll be your answer :D
