Step-by-step explanation:

a-(a-b)-b-(b-a)

a-(a-b)-b-(b-a)=> a-a+b-b-b+a

a-(a-b)-b-(b-a)=> a-a+b-b-b+a=>(now arrange the like terms) a-a+a+b-b-b

a-(a-b)-b-(b-a)=> a-a+b-b-b+a=>(now arrange the like terms) a-a+a+b-b-b=>a-b

EXPLANATION ON FUNDAMENTAL OPERATIONS (SIGNS)

=>a-(a-b) -b-(b-a)

=>a-(a-b) -b-(b-a)=>a-a+b-b-b+a (we changed the signs as we multiplied the signs in bracket and out the bracket) (+×- = -) (-×+= -) (+×+=+) (-×- =+)
