Question

Match the subtraction expressions to their correct answers. -12.48-(-2.99)-5.62 -353.92-(-283.56)-131.29 837–108– (-99) -15.11 -201.65 74 -199

Answer 1

We have the following:

1.

`-6(4)/(9)-3(2)/(9)-8(2)/(9)=-6(2\cdot2)/(9)-3(2)/(9)-8(2)/(9)=-12(2)/(9)-3(2)/(9)-8(2)/(9)=-23(2)/(9)=-17(8)/(9)`

2.

`-12.48-(-2.99)-5.62=-12.48+2.99-5.62=-15.11`

3.

`-19(2)/(9)-4(1)/(9)-(-3(4)/(9))=-19(2)/(9)-(4)/(9)+3(4)/(9)=-19(8)/(9)`

4.

`-353.92-(-283.56)-131.29=-353.92+283.56-131.29=-201.65`

5.

`83(1)/(5)-108(2)/(5)-(-99(1)/(5))=83(1)/(5)-108(2)/(5)+99(1)/(5)=74`
