Your question has me a little bit confused. First you say you want the "sum", so I get

ready to do addition. But then you go ahead and talk about "times", and that usually

means multiplying.

If you want the sum:

24 + (-5x) + (-x) = 24 - 6x and that's also the same as 6 (4 - x) .

If you want the 'product':

(24) times (-5x) times (-x) = 120x2 .

Either way, the answer stands for a number, but you can't figure out what the

number is until you know what number 'x' is.
