Explain how to subtract 247 from538

Answers

538
-247
( 8-7 is 1, you borrow from the 5 so 3 becomes 13 - 4 which is 9, and since you borrowed from the 5, five becomes 4 and 4 - 2 = 2)

The answer is 291.

Remember you are taking 247 from 538, so we write the big number on top, and the small one on the bottom and we subtract like this:

   538
   -   247
------------
   291

And you get 291.

Which best identifies the underlined clause? He understood (that the tomb might be there and still be untouched.)

A. adjective clause B. independent clause C. adverb clause D. noun clause

Answers

The answer is D, noun clause. A noun clause is a dependent clause that acts as a noun. Noun clauses begin with words such as how, that, what, whatever, when, where, whether, which, whichever, who, whoever, whom, whomever, and why. Noun clauses can act as subjects, direct objects, indirect objects, predicate nominatives, or objects of a preposition. It cannot be an adjective clause because it changes the meaning of the sentence. It cannot be an independent clause because it cannot stand on its own. And it cannot be an adverb clause because it does not describe a verb nor answer the questions how when or where.

Which sentence uses punctuation correctly? A.
The discovery which was the first of its kind in several years, caused an international stir.

Want to know why the answer is C? Look below! :D

Let's look at the process of elimination -

° We know it's not A) because there are no commas to separate the subordinate and independent clauses, so it's just a run-on sentence.

° It would not be B) either because even though it has a comma, it doesn't have enough so this is almost a run-on sentence, too.

° Let's look at C) - Hmm, looks like it could be the answer, but let's keep looking at the other choices.

° The answer doesn't look like it would be D) because, just like B), it does not have enough commas to separate the subordinate and independent clauses, and, therefore, we are left with C)

→ C) is your correct answer. It separates the clauses perfectly and isn't a fragment or run-on sentence
