Evaluate the Expression: Finding the Difference in 32-8

Which expression is equivalent to the given equation?

$32-8=$

The problem requires identifying an equivalent expression for $32 - 8$.

First, calculate the result of the given equation: $32 - 8 = 24$.

Now, evaluate each choice:

• Choice 1: $32 - 4 - 2 = 32 - 6 = 26$ (not equivalent to 24)
• Choice 2: $32 - 3 - 4 = 32 - 7 = 25$ (not equivalent to 24)
• Choice 3: $32 - 2 - 6 = 32 - 8 = 24$ (this matches exactly)
• Choice 4: $32 - 1 - 5 = 32 - 6 = 26$ (not equivalent to 24)

Thus, the expression equivalent to $32 - 8$ is $32 - 2 - 6$.
