Visualizing Inventory Discrepancies with Color-Coded Counters

Explain how Sarah should describe the visual counter process for each of the three scenarios (A, B, and C) to calculate their respective sums. For each scenario, your response must:

  1. State the initial counter setup (how many positive or negative counters are used).
  2. Describe how the counters are combined or paired (including any forming of neutral pairs and cancellations).
  3. State the final quantity and type of remaining counters, along with the resulting integer sum.
