Question
Lori's Purse Melissa's Purse








Lori's and Melissa's purses are shown above. What is the difference between these two masses, in ounces?

Answer 1

We can calculate the difference between Lori's and Melissa's purse masses by subtracting Melissa's purse mass from Lori's purse mass:

Lori's purse mass = 16 ounces

Melissa's purse mass = 11 ounces

Difference = Lori's purse mass - Melissa's purse mass

Difference = 16 ounces - 11 ounces

Difference = 5 ounces

Therefore, the difference between Lori's and Melissa's purse masses is 5 ounces.
