Solve the following subtraction problems. remember to borrow as necessary. a. 5 lb. – 2lb. 5 oz. b. 17 t. 13 lb. 3 oz. – 9 t. 20 lb. 9 oz. c. 68 lb. 13 oz. – 30 lb. 15 oz.

a. 2 lb 11 oz, b. 7 T 1,992 lb 12 oz , c. 38 lb 14 oz

Step-by-step explanation:

The first thing we need to understand is the conversions.

1 T = 2,000 lb

1 lb = 16 oz

Knowing this, there are many ways to find out the answer, please see below the one I used; I converted all measure units to oz, subtracted the amounts, and finally converted the units back to their original ones.

a. 5 lb or (16 oz*5) - (2 lb or (16 oz*2) + 5 oz) = 80 oz - 37 oz = 43 oz = 2 lb 11 oz

b. (17 T or (2,000 lb*17) + 13 lb + 3 oz) - (9 T or (2,000 lb*9) + 20 lb + 9 oz) = (34,013 lb or (16 oz *34,013) + 3 oz) - (18,020 lb or (16 oz *18,020) + 9 oz) = 544,213  oz - 288,329  oz = 255,884  oz = 7 T 1992 lb 12 oz

c. (68 lb or (16 oz*68) + 13 oz) - (30 lb or (16 oz*30)+15) = 1,117 oz - 495 oz = 622 oz = 38 lb 14 oz

c

step-by-step explanation:

it would be see because your formula is f(x)=6x, so 6 times 1 is 6 and you go on and the best answer is c.
