Full solution

Q. Subtract 2w -2 w from 6w -6 w
  1. Understand Operation: Understand the operation to be performed. We need to subtract 2w-2w from 6w-6w. This means we are taking the value 6w-6w and subtracting 2w-2w from it.
  2. Perform Subtraction: Perform the subtraction. Subtracting a negative is the same as adding its positive equivalent. So, 6w(2w)-6w - (-2w) is the same as 6w+2w-6w + 2w.
  3. Combine Like Terms: Combine like terms. Since both terms involve the variable ww, we can combine them by adding their coefficients.6w+2w=(6+2)w=4w-6w + 2w = (-6 + 2)w = -4w
