Use the additive inverse to find 8.76−26.54
The additive inverse of a number is the opposite of the number when added, which means it will result in a sum of zero.
To find the additive inverse of a number, we change the sign of the number. So, the additive inverse of 8.76 is -8.76 and the additive inverse of 26.54 is -26.54.
Now, we can subtract 26.54 from 8.76 by adding the additive inverse of 26.54 to 8.76:
8.76 + (-26.54) = -17.78
Therefore, 8.76 - 26.54 is equal to -17.78.
