Find the Missing Sign in Expression: 98-20□18+60

Question

Choose the correct sign:

982018+60 98-20\Box18+60

Step-by-Step Solution

To solve this problem, we need to determine which operator between = = , < < , or > > makes the mathematical expression 982018+60 98 - 20 \Box 18 + 60 valid. Let's perform each step carefully.

First, we'll compute both sides of the expression:

  • Calculate the left expression: 9820=78 98 - 20 = 78 .
  • Calculate the right expression: 18+60=78 18 + 60 = 78 .

Now, let's compare the results. We have 78 78 on the left and 78 78 on the right:

Since 78=78 78 = 78 , the correct operator to use is = = .

Therefore, the expression is correctly written as:

9820=18+60 98 - 20 = 18 + 60

Thus, the correct sign is = = .
