Final answer:

To subtract complex numbers, subtract the real parts and the imaginary parts separately. The difference of the given complex numbers is -3 + 2i.


Step-by-step explanation:

To subtract complex numbers, we subtract the real parts and the imaginary parts separately.

Given complex numbers (10-8/) and (13-10/),

the real parts are 10 and 13, and

the imaginary parts are -8/ and -10/.

Subtracting the real parts, we get 10 - 13 = -3,

and subtracting the imaginary parts, we get -8/ - (-10/) = -8/ + 10/ = 2/.

Therefore, the difference of the given complex numbers is -3 + 2i.
