A company has a monthly profit of $6,400. The next month, they have a loss of $4,700.

What expression would you use to find the difference in profit between the two months?

Possible choices are:
A. -4,700 - 6,700
B. 4,700 - 6,700
C. 6,400 - (-4,700)
D. 6,400 - 4,700

In order to find the difference in profit, you must subtract 4,700 from 6,400. You know this, because a "difference" is a solution to a problem dealing with subtraction.
That would look like this: 6,400 - 4,700 .
