Which context describes a difference of rational numbers? * The temperature during the day drops. Tom won 2 out of 5 hands playing cards. The stock price rose 5 points Leah ran 2 miles more than she did yesterday.

Answer 1

The context that describes a difference of rational numbers is: The temperature during the day drops.

This context implies a change (a decrease) in temperature, which can be represented as a difference (final temperature - initial temperature). The other options do not directly represent a difference between two quantities.
