NO! Do it one at a time:

330-150=180

180-60=120

120 is the answer.

EXPLANATION:

you have to do it from left of the screen towards the right. DO NOT subtract 60 from 150 because 150 doesn't have a positive sign in front of it (+150), instead it has a negative sign (-150) so basically the equation looks like this, if you are adding:

330 + (-150) + (-60)

so when you are combining two negative numbers, it's like adding them but keeping the negative sign, thus (-150)+(-60)=(-210).

So it is actually 330 + (-210) or 330-210=120. :)
