Sandra and her friend went to the candy store. each of them purchased a bag of jelly beans. sandra's bag weighed 1.25 pounds. her friend's bag weighted 1.05 pounds. who bought more candy? is it subtraction or division ?

You would subtract.

The question is asking who has more, so to find out, you need to take away the smaller amount from the bigger amount. (1.25-1.05)

So Sandra bought more candy. Hope this helps!

PLS mark as brainliest

Sandra got more. We don't use subtraction or division in this.

We directly check - is 1.25 more or 1.05.

So in statements  it can be written like this-

Weight of candy Sandra purchased - 1.25

Weight of candy her friend purchased - 1.05

Therefore 1.25 is greater because the tenth decimal place is having greater value.

the difference between a number and 5 is -2.

step-by-step explanation:

notice that the equation you are given has -2 (negative 2) on the right side, not 2. when you subtract 5 from a number n, you are finding the difference between the number and 5.

the difference between a number and 5 is -2.
