Same question, different words which is different? Find "both" answers add - 4.5 and 3.5, what is - 4.5 increased by 3.5, what is the distance between - 4.5 and 3.5, and find the sum of - 4.5 and 3.5

Let us consider first part,

Add - 4.5 and 3.5

= - 4.5 + 3.5

When two integers are subtracted, the sign (positive or negative) of the answer will be the sign of the larger number.

So, - 4.5 + 3.5 = - 1.0

Let us consider second part,

We have to determine the value of, - 4.5 increased by 3.5

= - 4.5 + 3.5

= - 1.0

Let us consider third part,

We have to determine the distance between - 4.5 and 3.5

= 3.5 - (-4.5)

= 3.5 + 4.5

= 8.0

So, the distance between - 4.5 and 3.5 is 8 units.

Let us consider the fourth part,

We have to find the sum of - 4.5 and 3.5

= - 4.5 + 3.5

= - 1.0

Third part is different from the other parts of the question.
