Answer:

95

Explanation:

step 1

Find out the total ball bearing ordered

Multiply the number of ball bearing boxes by the number of ball bearings in each box.


17(85)=1,445\ ball\ bearings

step 2

Find out the total springs ordered

Multiply the number of spring boxes by the number of springs in each box.


15(90)=1,350\ springs

step 3

To find out how many more ball bearings than springs did they order, subtract the total number of springs from the total number of ball bearings


1,445-1,350=95
