Answer:

Option (1)

Step-by-step explanation:

-8.3+9.2-4.4+3.7 john has used his first step as -8.3+9.2+4.4+3.7.

He has use additive inverse as their is no information is given about the additive inverse -4.4 can not be converted +4.4 .this is his incorrect step.

So, the correct steps are

-8.3+9.2-4.4+3.7

= (-8.3-4.4)+(9.2+3.7)

= -12.7+12.9

= 0.2

Hence, there is need to change the step  !.

Hence, the correct answer is 1.

Additive inverse; you can't just take -4.4 and make it positive.
