Change 1 to a fraction and subtract the numerators. EXAMPLE: 1 - 2/5 = 5/5 - 2/5 = 3/5
quotient means to divide, so the quotient of 2 is to divide by 2. difference means to subtract, so subtract by 5
1. Subtract 2x from each side: x + 2 = -52. Subtract 2 from each side: x = -7The above method is correct, however I find it simplier to write out each step separately rather than subtracting 2x from each side automatically.3x +2 =2x-5. Subtract 2x from the right and it must be subtracted from the left.3x-2x+2=-5 Subtract the 2x from the left.x+2 = -5 Subtract 2 from the left and it must also be subtracted from the right.x = -5-2 Subtract it.x =-7
-32915 is what you get when you subtract 825 from 33740.
3-(-2)=5

1. Subtract 25 2. Then subtract 6 3. Then subtract 12 4. Then subtract 2 5. Then subtract 10 6. Then subtract 15 7. Then subtract 7 8. Then add 3 X 1/2 9. Then add 8
First, subtract 20 and 5. Then take that answer and subtract 13 from it. 20-5-13 15-13 2 The answer is 2
1. Subtract 2x from each side: x + 2 = -52. Subtract 2 from each side: x = -7The above method is correct, however I find it simplier to write out each step separately rather than subtracting 2x from each side automatically.3x +2 =2x-5.

Subtract is to take away a certain portion of a number. For example, if you subtract 5 from 7 (7-5), you take off 5 parts of 7, and get 2 as your answer.

-32915 is what you get when you subtract 825 from 33740.
The end result is: -2 + s

4x + 2 = 2x + 5 Subtract through by 2x 2x + 2 = 5 Subtract through by 2 2x = 3 Divide through by 2 x = 1.5 ■
