Step-by-step explanation:

The correct question is

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

Remember that the total must be equal to the total of the first pair

-2+6=4 ---> is ok
