Answer:

The estimated difference is 11.

Explanation:


18(9)/(11) in simplified form is 18.81. This when rounded to whole number becomes 19.

Similarly,
8(3)/(8) in simplified form is 8.375 and when rounded to nearest whole number, it becomes 8.

Now, the difference will be :


19-8=11

So, the estimated difference is 11.
