Answer:

20-10=20

20+10=30

Explanation:

For 20-10 let's assume John has 20 apples. He gives 10 to Carol.

Understand that subtraction can mean taking away or finding a difference. For example, 13 – 8 can mean, “How many are left when you take 8 away from 13?” Or, 13 – 8 can be interpreted as, “How much more is 13 than 8?” Understand that subtraction is the opposite of addition. Know the addition facts up to 9 + 9.

If john has 20 apples and gives 10 to carol, he will have 10 left.

For 20+10, we do the opposite operation, which is addition.

Addition is finding the total value of two or more numbers. Addition is shown using the + symbol in maths sums.

If john has 20 apples and buys 10 more, he will have 30 apples.
