Question

On Thursday, the temperature in Spincich Lake, Michigan was 22F. By Friday, the temperature had dropped 35 degrees. What was the temperature on Friday?

Answer 1

-13F

Explanation:

since its negative, you could find the answer by doing 35-22

then, just adding a negative symbol in front!

this is because you are finding the difference by subtracting, and by doing this i find it a lot easier to get your answer

so, 35-22 is equal to 13. so, 22-35 is -13

i hope that makes sense

honestly, you can just use a calculator to figure it out too! just put 22-35
