Answer:
Mo's answer is wrong.
635 - 813
= -178
Step-by-step explanation:
a. Is Mo's answer right?
No, Mo's answer is incorrect
Mo did this by working from right to left, Just like Subtraction
• 3 - 5 =
We that 1 from the number in tens , add that to 3, making it 13
13 - 5 = 8
• 1 - 3 = 7
The one above becomes 0, because 1 was taken from it. We add 1 to 0, making it 10
10 - 3 = 7
• 8 - 6 = 1
The 8 above reduces to 7 because 1 has been taken from 8.
Hence: 7 - 6 = 1
635 - 813
= -178
The answer is minus 178 because, we are subtracting the bigger number form the smaller number.
b. Solve
6(100) + 3(10) + 5(1)
- [8(100) + 1(10) + 3(1)]
by working with expanded forms. Discuss how Mo's work compares with your work in expanded forms.
= -1(100) + 7(10) + 8(1)
