Here are six number cards.
-4 -2 -1 5 6 8
Arrange the cards into three pairs with the same total.
step 1
Find the first pair
I take the numbers
-4 and 8
Adds the number to find out the total
-4+8=4
step 2
Find the second pair
I take the numbers
-2 and 6
Adds the number to find out the total
Remember that the total must be equal to the total of the first pair
-2+6=4 ---> is ok
step 3
Find the third pair
The remaining numbers are
-1 and 5
Check the sum
Remember that the total must be equal to 4
-1+5=4 ---> is ok
therefore
The three pairs are
