Answer:

Tanaysha replace 8 by ( 10 -2) to solve the given expression.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, the given expression to be solved  is:

72  -   8   ..........  (1)

Now, as we know: 8 = 10 - 2

Replacing the value of 8 with ( 10 - 2), we get:

72  -   8

= 72  -   (10 - 2)

= 72 - 10 + 2  

= (72  + 2 ) - 10

Now, adding ( 72 ) and ( 2) , we get:

= 74 - 10

Subtracting 10 from 74, we get:

= 64

So, Tanaysha replace 8 by ( 10 -2) to solve the given expression.
