153.9 inches is the correct answer
Answer:
70
Step-by-step explanation:
- for the value of difference to be largest, the minuend should be maximum(most possibly) and the subtrahend should be minimum
[in A-B=X, A is minuend and B is subtrahend ]
- so, $a.b should be maximum. as there is a condition that 4 digits should be distinct, the product will be maximum if we choose 2 maximum valued numbers from the given numbers. so, one of them should be 9 and the other should be 8.
therefore, $a.b=9*8=72
- as mentioned above, c.d$ should be minimum. this will be possible only when we choose 2 minimum valued numbers from the given numbers. so, one of them should be 1 and the other should be 2.
therefore, c.d$ = 1*2 = 2
- hence, the difference = 72-2 = 70
- thus, the largest possible value of the difference $a.b - c.d$ = 70
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
First you distribute so two times 4Y is 6Y then you multiply the two in the five which gives you 2Y -5 equals 70
Its the 3rd choice if we have to shade the unwante part
The mistake Shawna made was in her answer the 54 repeats so the bar should be over the .54 not the .545
