What is the value of the expression? 8.5 - (-4.8) - 7

Mathematics

marysya [2.9K]3 years ago

Answer:

6.3

Step-by-step explanation:

8.5 - (-4.8)

Let's focus on - (-4.8)

if a negative number is subtracted, it reverses itself

In other words, if a negative number is being subtracted, it is the same as being added as a positive number

So we change the equation to

8.5 + 4.8 = 13.3

Now we subtract 7 from 13.3

Since positive 7 is being subtracted, the rule for -4.8 does not apply to it

13.3 - 7 = 6.3

A club has money for a trip. The expenses for the trip are shown below:
KonstantinChe [14]

Answer:

3/100

Step-by-step explanation:

convert these measurements into one unit, I am going to do decimals but you can sue fractions or percentages as well.

1/4 is 0.25

2/5 is 0.4

0.12 is 0.12

20% is 0.2

if you add all these up, it equals 0.97

1- 0.97= 0.03

you therefore have 0.03 of the money left over

this as a fraction is 3/100
