Answer:

6.3

Step-by-step explanation:

8.5 - (-4.8)

Let's focus on - (-4.8)

if a negative number is subtracted, it reverses itself

In other words, if a negative number is being subtracted, it is the same as being added as a positive number

So we change the equation to

8.5 + 4.8 = 13.3

Now we subtract 7 from 13.3

Since positive 7 is being subtracted, the rule for -4.8 does not apply to it

13.3 - 7 = 6.3
