Answer:

C

Explanation:

When you subtract 7 from 107, it would be 100 and when you subtract 3 from 353 it would be 350 so : 350 - 100. That’s much easier!

Hope this helped!

Answer: The answer would be D.

Subtracting 7 from 107 would make it 100. Adding that 7 to 353 would make in 360. It is easier to do 360 - 100 in your head.
