Answer 2

Answer: The total change is 21.

Since you want to find the change from the lowest to highest, make it into a subtraction problem. First of all, take the smallest number in front of the largest.

20 -1

Next, add a minus sign in between, your equation should look like this:

20 - (-1) = x

Then, you cancel out the negative signs. After that you solve it

20 - (-1) -> 20 + 1.

Lastly, you add them together.

20 + 1 = 21.

In conclusion, the answer is 21.
