Answer:
Maureen ignored the negative(minus) sign in 1.7 thereby turning it into positive 1.7
Step-by-step explanation:
-1.7 + (-6.3)
Correct simplification
-1.7 + (-6.3)
Open parenthesis
= - 1.7 - 6.3
= -8
NOTE:
- * + = -
- * - = +
+ * - = -
+ * + = +
Maureen's simplification
-1.7 + (-6.3)
= 1.7 - 6.3
= -4.6
Maureen ignored the negative(minus) sign in 1.7 thereby turning it into positive 1.7
