The correct Answer is:
Let's solve each part of the question step by step. ### (i) Subtract -2459 from 5128 1. **Identify the operation**: We need to subtract -2459 from 5128. This can be written as: \[ 5128 - (-2459) \] 2. **Apply the rule of subtraction**: Subtracting a negative number is the same as adding its positive counterpart. Therefore, we rewrite the expression: \[ 5128 + 2459 \] 3. **Perform the addition**: \[ 5128 + 2459 = 7587 \] 4. **Determine the sign**: Since both numbers are positive, the result is positive: \[ \text{Final answer for (i)}: 7587 \] ### (ii) Subtract -1040 from -687 1. **Identify the operation**: We need to subtract -1040 from -687. This can be expressed as: \[ -687 - (-1040) \] 2. **Apply the rule of subtraction**: Again, subtracting a negative number means adding: \[ -687 + 1040 \] 3. **Perform the addition**: \[ -687 + 1040 = 353 \] 4. **Determine the sign**: Since 1040 is larger than 687, the result is positive: \[ \text{Final answer for (ii)}: 353 \] ### (iii) Subtract 347 from -58 1. **Identify the operation**: We need to subtract 347 from -58. This can be written as: \[ -58 - 347 \] 2. **Perform the subtraction**: \[ -58 - 347 = -405 \] 3. **Determine the sign**: Since both numbers are negative, the result remains negative: \[ \text{Final answer for (iii)}: -405 \] ### (iv) Subtract -728 from 0 1. **Identify the operation**: We need to subtract -728 from 0. This can be expressed as: \[ 0 - (-728) \] 2. **Apply the rule of subtraction**: Subtracting a negative number means adding: \[ 0 + 728 \] 3. **Perform the addition**: \[ 0 + 728 = 728 \] 4. **Determine the sign**: Since the result is positive: \[ \text{Final answer for (iv)}: 728 \] ### Summary of Answers: - (i) 7587 - (ii) 353 - (iii) -405 - (iv) 728
