How much more money does Elsa have than Jesse? Use the table to answer.
-30 + 45 = $15
45 - 30 = $15
45 - (-30) = $75
-30 - 45= -$75

How much do Sam and Ellis have combined? Use the table to answer.
Answer explanation
To combine means to add. Therefore, you should add Sam's bank balance of -$15 and Ellis's balance of $25. The calculation is: -15 + 25 = 10. Since one number is negative and the other is positive, you subtract and keep the sign of the number with the greater absolute value. In this case, the result is $10 or simply 10.
