Answer 2

Answer:

89

Step-by-step explanation:

To find how many more tomatoes are there in the green carton than in the blue carton, we must subtract the number of tomatoes in blue carton from the number of tomatoes in the green carton.

Number of tomatoes in blue carton = 149 tomatoes

Number of tomatoes in green carton = 238 tomatoes

Number of tomatoes in green carton more than the number of tomatoes in the blue carton = 238 - 149 =  

$\left[\begin{array}{ccc}2&3&8\\ - 1&4&9\end{array}\right]$

---------------------

          8   9

∴ There are 89 more tomatoes in the green carton than in the blue carton.
