OpenStudy (***[isuru]***):

I think your expression is \[\large\ -( -16 .8-4.7)\] this is equal to \[\large -(-16.8) -(-4.7)\] when u multiply a negative number by the negative sign it becomes positive so.. its \[\large\ 16.8 + 4.7\] and there r many ways u can write this \[\large\ -(-16.8) + 4.7\]or \[\large\ 16.8 -(-4.7 )\]
