Step-by-step explanation:
Sum of −8.46 and 5.31 means we need to add −8.46+5.31.
We know that,
|-8.46| > |5.31|
It means we subtract 8.46 - 5.31
At hundredth place, 6-1 = 5
At tenths place, 4-3 = 1
At ones place, 8-5 = 3
It would mean that, 8.46 - 5.31 = 3.15
8.46 has a negative sign. It means that the final answer will have negative sign i.e. −8.46+5.31 = -3.15
Hence, the correct option is (a) " Because |−8.46|>|5.31|, subtract |5.31| from |−8.46| and the sign is negative".

Okie dokie,
When converting a decimal, you use the place the decimal is in...
Let's review the places: tenths, hundredths, thousandths, etc.
You look at the last number to determine what place you're using!
-------------------
Now here's an example for the
tenths place:
.5
it's in the tenths place, right? so put it over that number (with no decimal) over a
10.
(mobile) 5/10 or

Now, decide if you can simplify. You can! 5/10 simplifies down to
1/2.

is your answer!
--------
Example for the
hundredths place:
.26
the last number is in the hundredths place, so put the number (without a decimal) over
100!26/100 or

You can simplify this!
13/50 is your answer!
Calculators can also come in handy!
Good luck!
