Answer:

-12 exceeds -15 by 3

Step-by-step explanation:

To find out by how much a exceeds b, subtract a - b.

For example, by how much does 8 exceed 6?

Here, a = 8 and b = 6.

a - b = 8 - 6 = 2

2 is correct since we know that 8 is 2 greater than 6.

Now we do this problem.

By how much does -12 exceed -15?

a = -12; b = -15

a - b = -12 - (-15) = -12 + 15 = 3

Answer: -12 exceeds -15 by 3
