To find the additive inverse of a number, you simply change its sign.
The additive inverse of −234.76 is 234.76.
So, to solve −123.45−(−234.76), we can rewrite it as −123.45 + 234.76.
Now we can subtract the two numbers:
−123.45 + 234.76 = 111.31
Therefore, the correct solution is 111.31.
Answer: 111.31

To find the additive inverse of a number, you simply change its sign.
The additive inverse of −6710 is 6710.
So, to solve −2445−(−6710), we can rewrite it as −2445 + 6710.
Now we can subtract the two numbers:
−2445 + 6710 = 4265
Therefore, the correct solution is 4265.
Answer: 4265

hello?
Apologies for the confusion.
To find the additive inverse of a number, you simply change its sign.
The additive inverse of -6 7/10 is 6 7/10.
So, to solve -24 4/5 - (-6 7/10), we can rewrite it as -24 4/5 + 6 7/10.
Now we can subtract the two numbers:
-24 4/5 + 6 7/10 = -17 9/10
Therefore, the correct solution is -17 9/10.
Answer: -17 9/10.
Apologies for any confusion caused. Based on the given expression of −24 4/5−6 7/10:
First, we need to convert the mixed numbers into improper fractions.
-24 4/5 can be written as -24 + 4/5 = -120/5 + 4/5 = -124/5
-6 7/10 can be written as -6 + 7/10 = -60/10 + 7/10 = -53/10
Now we can rewrite the expression as -124/5 - (-53/10)
To subtract fractions, we need a common denominator, which in this case is 10:
-124/5 - (-53/10) = -124/5 + 53/10
Now, we can combine the fractions:
-124/5 + 53/10 = (-124 * 2)/(5 * 2) + 53/10 = -248/10 + 53/10 = -195/10
The resulting fraction -195/10 can be simplified as -19 1/2.
Therefore, the correct solution is -19 1/2.
Answer: -19 1/2.
Apologies for the confusion caused. I made an error in my previous response. Let's correct the solution:
To find the additive inverse of a number, you simply change its sign.
The additive inverse of -6 7/10 is 6 7/10.
So, to solve -24 4/5 - (-6 7/10), we can rewrite it as -24 4/5 + 6 7/10.
Now we need to find a common denominator to add the fractions:
-24 4/5 + 6 7/10 = -124/5 + 67/10
To add these fractions, they need a common denominator of 10:
-124/5 + 67/10 = (-124 * 2)/(5 * 2) + 67/10 = -248/10 + 67/10 = -181/10
Therefore, the correct solution is -181/10, which can also be expressed as -18 1/10.
Apologies for any confusion caused by my previous incorrect response.
Answer: -18 1/10.
