Question: Matt rode his bike away from the house, he rode a total of 1000 feet. Along the way, he passed a stop sign that was 350 feet away from his house. He continued his ride and passed a second sign. After passing the second sign he road an additional 275 feet. How many feet are between the first and second signs? Think carefully first, then make a decision:
Matthew rode 350 feet to the first sign, so there are 1000 - 350 = 650 feet between the first sign and the end. After passing the second sign Matthew road 275, so 650 - 275 = 375 feet remain. So the answer is 375.
