Question

compute.
$25.9 + (-4.3) = \square$
$4.5 - 29.26 = \square$

Explanation:

Step1: Rewrite as subtraction

$25.9 + (-4.3) = 25.9 - 4.3$

Step2: Calculate the first expression

$25.9 - 4.3 = 21.6$

Step3: Rewrite second expression

$4.5 - 29.26 = -(29.26 - 4.5)$

Step4: Calculate the second expression

$29.26 - 4.5 = 24.76$, so $-(29.26 - 4.5) = -24.76$

Answer:

$21.6$
$-24.76$
