Given: Two terms 2a + 8b + 10 to get - 3a + 7b + 16
To find: What should be subtracted from 2a + 8b + 10 to get - 3a + 7b + 16
Solution:
- Now we have given two terms:
2a + 8b + 10 to get - 3a + 7b + 16
- Let the subtracted term be x, then:
2a + 8b + 10 - x = - 3a + 7b + 16
- Now taking like terms on one side, we get:
x = 2a + 8b + 10 + 3a - 7b - 16
- Now solving it, we get:
x = 5a + b - 6
Answer:
So the term which needs to be subtracted is 5a + b - 6.

Answer:
5a +b -6 should be subtracted from 2a+8b+10 to get -3a+7b+16
Explanation:
Let X be subtracted from 2a +8b +10, it can be written as
2a +8b +10 -X = -3a +7b+16
⇒ -X = -3a +7b +16 -2a -8b -10
⇒ -X = -3a -2a +7b -8b +16 -10
⇒ -X = -5a -b +6
After divide by (-) to both side
X = 5a +b -6
