a) \(73\left(8-59\right)-59\left(8-73\right)\)
\(=73.8-73.59-59.8+59.73\)
\(=8.\left(73-59\right)\)
\(=8.14=112\)
b) \(199\left(15-17\right)-199\left(-17+5\right)\)
\(=199.15-199.17+199.17-199.5\)
\(=199.\left(15-5\right)\)
\(=199.10=1990\)
a) 73.(8-59) - 59.(8-73)
= 73 . 8 - 73 . 59 - 59 . 8 + 59 . 73
= - 73 . 59 + 59 . 73 + 73 . 8 - 59 . 8
= 0 + 8 ( 73 - 59 )
= 8 . 14
= 112
b)199.(15-17) - 199.( -17 + 5 )
= 199 . 15 - 199 . 17 - 199 . (- 17 ) + ( - 199 ) . 5
= 199 . 15 - 19 . 17 + 199 . 17 + ( - 199 ) . 5
= 199 . 15 - 0 + 199 . ( - 5 )
= 199 . [ 15 - ( - 5 ) ]
= 199 . 10
= 1990
