Question

The saints have 20 points and the Eagles have 14 points

What is the difference between the two?

Answer 1

The difference is 6 points.

Explanation:

Given,

The saints having points = 20,

While, the eagles having points = 14,

Since, 20 > 14,

`\implies\text{ Saint's point}> \text{Eagle's point}`,

Thus, the difference in their points = Saint's point - Eagle's point

`= 20 - 14`

`= 6\text{ points}`

Answer 2

The difference between the two is, 6

Explanation:

Difference of any two real numbers states that:

if x and y are real number, then

`|x-y| = |y-x|`

As per the given statement:

the saints have 20 points

the eagles have 14 points.

To find the difference between the two is;

By definition, we have;

`|20-14| = |14-20| = 6`

Therefore, the difference between the two is, 6
