Question

the strength of the school reduced to 1140 from 1260 the reduction in strength is.

Answer 1

1260-1140
=120


Reduction in strength=120

Answer 2

We will solve the question using simple subtraction of the two given values.

Information provided to us:

Initial strength of the school = 1260

Final strength of the school = 1140

We can see that ( Initial Strength ) > ( Final Strength ), hence there is a reduction in strength of the school.

We can calculate the reduction is strength by simply subtracting the final strength from the initial strength.

Reduction is strength = Final Strength - Initial Strength

Reduction is strength = 1260 - 1140
Reduction is strength = 120
