Question

Simplify: (4 – 5) – (13 – 18 + 2). (a) -1, (b) –2, (c) 1, (d) 2

Answer 1

(4-5) - (13-18+2).
First, we must clear the brackets.
(4-5) - (13-18+2)
   -1   -       -3.
Therefore, -1-(-3) = -1 + 3 = 2.
Hence, we verified that (4-5)-(13-18+2) = 2 = (d).

Answer 2

Answer:

Option d -  $(4-5)-(13-18 + 2)=2$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Expression $(4-5)-(13-18 + 2)$

To find : Simplify the expression ?

Solution :

Expression $(4-5)-(13-18 + 2)$

Applying BODMAS,

$(4-5)-(13-18 + 2)=(-1)-(13-16)$

$(4-5)-(13-18 + 2)=-1-(-3)$

$(4-5)-(13-18 + 2)=-1+3$

$(4-5)-(13-18 + 2)=2$

Therefore,  $(4-5)-(13-18 + 2)=2$

So, Option d is correct.
