–0.61 – (–7.74)= -0.61+7.74= 7.74 -0.61 ______ 7.13

OpenStudy (animallover456):

-7.13 you need to drop down the negative!!!!

OpenStudy (sushi121212):

What negative? That's a subtraction sign.

OpenStudy (animallover456):

negative sign

OpenStudy (sushi121212):

A number subtracted by a negative number will get you a positive number, so –0.61 – (–7.74) will really equal -0.61+7.74, which subtracts to be positive 7.13.
