A. –427.22
B. 230.02
C. 427.22
D. –230.02

Answer 1

For this case we must find the value of the following expression:

`(+328.62) - (+ 98.6) =`

We apply distributive property to the term within the parenthesis taking into account tha:

`- * + = -`

Rewriting we have:

`+ 328.62-98.6 =`

Different signs are subtracted and the sign of the major is placed:

`+328.62-98.6 = 230.02`

Answer:

230.02
