Video Solution

Step-by-Step Solution

These signs in the exercises refer to the concept of "absolute value",

In absolute value we don't have "negative" or "positive", instead we measure the distance from point 0,

In other words, we always "cancel out" the negative signs.

In this exercise, we'll change the minus to a plus sign, and simply remain with 19 and a quarter.

And that's the solution!

Answer

1914 19\frac{1}{4}
