Answer:

Sandra makes an error in second step reasoning .

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that Sandra is showing her work in simplifying

(3.3-4.2)-2.8+5.7

We have to find the error in her work or reasoning.

Step 1:(3.3-4.2)-2.8+5.7

Step 2:3.3+(-4.2)-2.8)+5.7

Reason: Associative property

Step 3:3.3-7+5.7

Step 4:3.3+5.7-7

Reason: Commutative property

Step 5:9-7=2

Hence, Sandra makes an error in second step reasoning .

Sandra uses distributive property instead of associative property in step 2.
