How will you write the difference of (10) and (m)?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: \(10-m\)
The difference of 10 and m means subtract m from 10. Therefore, the expression is \(10-m\). The expression \(m-10\) means subtracting 10 from m, so it reverses the order. Exam tip: “the difference of a and b” is generally written as \(a-b\).
