    A statement is given as:

    "Carleton answered 53 questions incorrectly on a test". So, it represents '-53' integer.

    Now, we have to give two situations which will represent the opposite of '-53' that is '+53'.

    Situation 1: David saved $53 from his pocket money. So, the amount saved by David is '$53'. So, this situation represents the opposite of '-53'.

    Situation 2: James bought 53 mango flavored candies. So, the total candies with James is 53. So, this situation represents the opposite of '-53'.
