Answer:
51 74
Step-by-step explanation:
x = smaller
x +23 = larger
added together (x + x+23) equal to 28 less than 3x = 3x-28
x + x+23 = 3x-28 subtract 2x from both sides of the equation
23 = x -28 add 28 to both sides
51 = x then the larger = 51 + 23 = 74
You need to add two mixed numerals.
One is positive and one is negative.
To add a positive number and a negative number, first take the absolute value of both, making them both positive. Then subtract the smaller absolute value from the larger absolute value. Finally, the sign of the answer is the same sign as the number that has the larger absolute value.
The numbers are -4 5/8 and 2 1/8
Take absolute values:
|-4 5/8| = 4 5/8
|2 1/8| = 2 1/8
Subtract the smaller absolute value from the larger absolute value.
4 5/8 - 2 1/8 = 2 4/8 = 2 1/2
The greater absolute value is 4 5/8.
Since the number with the larger absolute value was -4 5/8, a negative number, the answer is negative, -2 1/2
-4 5/8 + 2 1/8 = - 2 1/2
