Answer 1

5.48

Explanation:

32.45 - 26.97 = 5.48

Answer 2

Jenna lost 5,48

Explanation:

Before the diet Jenna's waist measured 32.45 inches.

After the diet Jenna's waist measured 26.97 inches.

To get the difference between the two measures, we have to discount the new measure from the previous one.

So, difference is 26.97 inches-32.45 inches= -5,48. It is negative because she lost inches.
