Solution:
For this question, we need to have a number line, we can not make the number line here. As it will be very long. Instead, I have attached a number line from -11 to +11 for your understanding and explained it below. Please refer to the attachment below for the number line.
Number Line:
A number line is a line which contains all the numbers from negative infinity to positive infinity divided by a single number zero. It has two sides, left hand side and right hand side. A side left to zero contains all the negative numbers and a side right to 0 contains, all the positive numbers.
So,
We are asked to add 34 in (-212), we will get 178 but with the negative sign, and it will lie on the left hand side of the number line.
SO,
34 + (-212) = 34 - 212 = -178
Hence,
Our sum which is 178 will lie on the left hand side of the number line.
