4.5 - 3.5 what is this problem? i can't solve it.

Hi! The answer to your question is going to be -8.

However if it was -4.5 - (-3.5) it would be -1.

Hope this helps!

step-by-step explanation:

from this example, we can see that subtracting with integers is the same as adding the opposite. we can solve using a number line or by using the saying "keep, change, change" to us solve. it is important to remember that we can subtract a negative and end up with a larger number than we started with.
