“IF YOU ARE ASKED TO COMPARE TWO NUMBERS, WHAT TWO OPERATIONS MIGHT YOU USE? WHY?”
Favorite Answer
So you might want to use subtraction to do that.
Then, you might want to know how many of one make up another (how many of one are needed to make another) in which case you’d use division.
difference= answer in subtraction
For example the difference between 156.25 and 30.16 is 126.09.that is one way you could compare 2 numbers.
another operation is to add.
eg. the numbers are 10 and 15
10:
=10+5
=15
15:
=!5 +5
=20
The sum of 10+5 is 15 and the suim of 15+5 is 20.20 is greater than 15 so 15 is higher than 10.
I hope this helps you(i cant really xplain well)
what does “difference” mean in math? subtraction. subtraction is the operation.
that is one. you should figure out the other on your own.
