6,421-(284+653)=(6,421-284)+653
This is a false statement. Explain why.
What is 6,421-(284+653)=6,421-937 where the 937 is equal to what is in the parentheses. When we solve 6,421-937, we get 5,484. When you do 6,421 minus284' you get6,137. We have to add that to 653 and we get 6,790....5,484 does not equal 6,790 due to order of operations.
