Answer 2

Answer: There are 54,550 more small paper clips than large paper clips in one day.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of small paper clips in one day = 138,800

Number of large paper clips in one day = 84,250

We need to find the number of more small paper clips than large paper clips are made by two machines in one day.

Number of small paper clips - Number of large paper clips

$138800-84250\\\\=54,550$

Hence, there are 54,550 more small paper clips than large paper clips in one day.
