Answer:

The answer for this would be 1,659,000

Explanation:

This is by doing the following:


29,160 x 30 = 874,800$

84,460 x 30 = 2,533,800$


Then you would subtract

2,533,800 - 874,800 = which would equal 1,659,000



I really hope this helps you!

Hey !

I am going to explain what I did to get the answer...

I multiplied $29,160 by 30 = $874,800
Then I multiplied $84,460 by 30 = $2,533,800

Then I subtracted the results = a difference of $1,659,000

So the answer to your question is, $1,659,000 is the difference.
