a. Unly whole numbers are to be entered as answers. Therefore, DO NOT put any signs in such as $, %, #, or a comma etc. in your answer. For example, if your answer is $1234 you should write 1234 as your answer and if your answer is 4%, write 4 as your answer. b. Indicate a negative number by putting a minus sign in front.
