Answer 2

-6.75 + (10.25) = ( (-6) + (10)) + ( (-0.75) + (0.25))

Here, the integer part = ( (-6) + (10))

Decimal part = ( (-0.75) + (0.25))

Explanation:

Here, the given expression is: -6.75 + (10.25)

Now, -6.75 = (-6) + (-0.75)

Also, (10.25) = (10) + (0.25)

So, the expression can be written as

-6.75 + (10.25) = (-6) + (-0.75) + (10) + (0.25)

= ( (-6) + (10)) + ( (-0.75) + (0.25))

or, -6.75 + (10.25) = ( (-6) + (10)) + ( (-0.75) + (0.25))

Where the integer part is ( (-6) + (10))

and the decimal part is ( (-0.75) + (0.25))
