First Q: s = -12
Second Q.: = U = 8
Last Q: 116 / 2 = 58
58 - 1 = odd1 = 57
58 + 1 = odd2 = 59
odd1 + odd2 = 116

-14=s+(12/-2)
-14=s+(-2)
-14=s-2
s=-14+2=-12
U+(12/-4)=5
U+(-3)=5
U-3=5
U=5+3=8
a+b=116
b=a+2 (the difference between 2 consecutive odd numbers equals 2)
a+a+2=116
2a=116-2
2a=114
a=114/2=57
b=a+2=59

That sounds more like a question for the average non-"special needs" eight grader.
