15218 students were in a museum on Friday 4379 were at the museum what is the difference between the number of students at the museum on Thursday and Friday
To find the difference between the number of students at the museum on Thursday and Friday, we need to subtract the number of students at the museum on Thursday from the number of students at the museum on Friday.
15218 - 4379 = 10839
Therefore, the difference between the number of students at the museum on Thursday and Friday is 10,839.
To find the difference between the number of students at the museum on Thursday and Friday, we need to subtract the number of students on Thursday from the number of students on Friday.
Number of students on Friday: 15,218
Number of students on Thursday: 4,379
Difference = Number of students on Friday - Number of students on Thursday
Difference = 15,218 - 4,379
Difference = 10,839
Therefore, the difference between the number of students at the museum on Thursday and Friday is 10,839.
To find the difference between the number of students at the museum on Thursday and Friday, you will first need to find out how many students were at the museum on Thursday.
Let's assume that the total number of students at the museum on Thursday is T.
Since you already know that 15218 students were at the museum on Friday, you can subtract the number of students on Friday (4379 students) from the total number of students (T) to find the number of students on Thursday:
T - 4379 = number of students on Thursday
To isolate T, you can add 4379 to both sides of the equation:
T - 4379 + 4379 = number of students on Thursday + 4379
This simplifies to:
T = 15218 + 4379
Calculating the sum:
T = 19597
Therefore, the total number of students at the museum on Thursday was 19,597.
Finally, to find the difference between the number of students at the museum on Thursday and Friday, subtract the number of students on Thursday from the number of students on Friday:
Difference = Number of students on Friday - Number of students on Thursday
Difference = 4379 - 19597
Difference = -1518
The difference between the number of students at the museum on Thursday and Friday is -1518 (negative 1518).
