frozen [14]

Answer:

The second statement is Correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

It is given that Antonio uses a calculator to find $38-\frac{44-16}{4}$ and gets a result of –10.

$38-\frac{44-16}{4}=38-\frac{28}{4}$

$=38-7$

$=31$

So, the first statement is incorrect.

2nd statement: Antonio found the answer for $38-44-\frac{16}{4}$

$38-44-\frac{16}{4}=-6-4$

$38-44-\frac{16}{4}=-10$

The second statement is Correct.

Third statement: Antonio found the answer for $\frac{38-44-16}{4}$

$\frac{38-44-16}{4}=-5.5$

So, the third statement is incorrect.

Fourth statement: Antonio found the answer for $38+\frac{44-16}{4}$

$38+\frac{44-16}{4}=38+7$

$38+\frac{44-16}{4}=45$

So, the fourth statement is incorrect.

Hence, the second statement is Correct.
