Question

Generate an equivalent expression to (5−6)−23
.(1 point)

Answer 1

To simplify the expression \((5 - 6) - 23\), first calculate \(5 - 6\):

\[
5 - 6 = -1
\]

Now substitute \(-1\) back into the expression:

\[
(-1) - 23
\]

Now perform the subtraction:

\[
-1 - 23 = -24
\]

Thus, an equivalent expression is:

\(-24\)
