To determine whether \(-797,443 - (-5,734,406)\) is positive or negative, we can simplify the expression:
\[ -797,443 - (-5,734,406) = -797,443 + 5,734,406 \]
Now, we can perform the addition:
\[ 5,734,406 - 797,443 \]
Let's calculate that:
- Start with the larger number: \(5,734,406\)
- Subtract \(797,443\):
\[ 5,734,406 - 797,443 = 4,936,963 \]
Since the result, \(4,936,963\), is positive, the final answer is that the expression \(-797,443 - (-5,734,406)\) is positive.
