The correct Answer is:
To simplify the expression \(63.7 - 28.89 + 76.4 - 37.66\), we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Rewrite the Expression First, we rewrite the expression clearly: \[ 63.7 - 28.89 + 76.4 - 37.66 \] ### Step 2: Group the Positive and Negative Terms We can group the positive and negative terms together: \[ (63.7 + 76.4) - (28.89 + 37.66) \] ### Step 3: Calculate the Sum of Positive Terms Now, let's calculate \(63.7 + 76.4\): - Align the decimal points: \[ \begin{array}{r} 63.7 \\ +76.4 \\ \hline \end{array} \] - Add the numbers: - \(3 + 4 = 7\) - \(6 + 7 = 13\) (write down 3 and carry over 1) - \(1 + 6 + 1 = 8\) So, \(63.7 + 76.4 = 140.1\). ### Step 4: Calculate the Sum of Negative Terms Next, we calculate \(28.89 + 37.66\): - Align the decimal points: \[ \begin{array}{r} 28.89 \\ +37.66 \\ \hline \end{array} \] - Add the numbers: - \(9 + 6 = 15\) (write down 5 and carry over 1) - \(8 + 6 + 1 = 15\) (write down 5 and carry over 1) - \(2 + 3 + 1 = 6\) So, \(28.89 + 37.66 = 66.55\). ### Step 5: Subtract the Sums Now we subtract the sum of the negative terms from the sum of the positive terms: \[ 140.1 - 66.55 \] - Align the decimal points: \[ \begin{array}{r} 140.10 \\ -66.55 \\ \hline \end{array} \] - Subtract the numbers: - Start from the right: \(0 - 5\) (we need to borrow, making it \(10 - 5 = 5\)) - Next column: \(0 - 5\) (again we need to borrow, making it \(10 - 5 = 5\)) - Next column: \(3 - 6\) (we need to borrow, making it \(13 - 6 = 7\)) - Last column: \(1 - 0 = 1\) So, \(140.10 - 66.55 = 73.55\). ### Final Answer Thus, the simplified result of the expression \(63.7 - 28.89 + 76.4 - 37.66\) is: \[ \boxed{73.55} \]
