Use a number line if you need 4/10 - 6/10 = -2/10a simpler way is to do the opposite 6/10 - 4/10 = 2/10  then the answer would be the opposite as well. so, -2/10

It's going to become a negative number. You have to change the subtraction sign to addition, then take the second term and change it to a negative. Then you add it. Since one is positive and the other is negative, you have to subtract the absolute values ( just the number without the negative sign) which ever Nemertea has the greater absolute value, that sign is going to be the sign for the answer. I know it's long and confusing. Sorry

Vanyuwa [196]

Answer:

<h2>5 quarts</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's think through this bit by bit.

<em>10 lbs * 16 oz/lb = 160 oz. of apples.</em>

In the proportion below, we can see we simply divide by 8, in terms of magnitude.

8 oz -> 1 cup

160 oz -> 160/8 -> 20 cup

20 cups! Is it the answer? NO! They're asking for it in units of <em>quarts, not cups.</em>

We must remember that 1 quart = 4 cups.

20 cups * 1/4 qt/cups = 5 quarts
