Explanation:

This is a binomial subtraction problem.

(6x-7)-(2x+3)

Binomial subtraction problems require one to phrase the problem as addition by flipping the signs.

(6x-7)+(-2x-3)

Now we can simplify:

6x-7-2x-3

4x-7-3

4x-10

So the answer is 4x-10 more pairs of shoes than Daniel.

See if that works.

Hope this helps!
