Which expression is equivalent to the given equation?
63−44
To find an expression equivalent to 63−44, let's begin by calculating the value:
- Step 1: Subtract the numbers 63−44.
Performing the calculation:
63−44=19
Next, we check which expression from the provided choices also results in 19.
Let's evaluate each option:
- Choice 1: 63−43
63−43=20 (Not 19)
- Choice 2: 63−43+1
63−43+1=21 (Not 19)
- Choice 3: 64−44−1
64−44=20
Subtracting 1: 20−1=19
This matches our target value.
- Choice 4: 64−44+1
64−44=20
Adding 1: 20+1=21
(Not 19)
Therefore, the expression equivalent to 63−44 is given by choice 3: 64−44−1.
