Q. Which expression is equivalent to

-51-(-60) ?

\newline

Choose

1

answer:

\newline

(A)

60+51

\newline

(B)

-60+(-51)

\newline

(C)

-51+60

\newline

(D)

51-60

Understand subtraction of negative numbers: Understand the operation of subtracting a negative number. Subtracting a negative number is the same as adding its positive counterpart. $-51 - (-60)$ is the same as $-51 + 60$ .
Perform addition of $-51$ and $60$ : Perform the addition of $-51$ and $60$ . $-51 + 60 = 9$
Match result with choices: Match the result with the given choices. $\newline$ The result of the calculation is $9$ , which is a positive number. This means we are looking for an expression that results in a positive outcome when simplified.
Evaluate equivalent expressions: Evaluate the choices to find the equivalent expression. $\newline$ (A) $60 + 51 = 111$ (This is not equal to $9$ ) $\newline$ (B) $-60 + (-51) = -111$ (This is not equal to $9$ ) $\newline$ (C) $-51 + 60 = 9$ (This is equal to our result) $\newline$ (D) $51 - 60 = -9$ (This is not equal to $9$ )
