How do you know?

OpenStudy (mertsj):

It says the the sum is subtracted

NVM, I think I get it :)

OpenStudy (mertsj):

I think you actually omitted the word "is" when you typed the problem

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No, no "is"

OpenStudy (mertsj):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Maybe they forgot to put an "is"
