Solution:
Given that,
Compare 50 - (- 65) and ( - 42) + 55
Let us first solve them and compare
When a negative sign number is multiplied with another negative sign number, then the result is positive
Therefore,
50 - ( - 65) = 50 + 65
50 - ( - 65) = 115
Remove the parenthesis
-42 + 55 = 13
Compare:
115 and 13
We know that,
115 > 13
Thus, 50 - (- 65) is greater than ( - 42) + 55
