Answer 1

Jawaban:

To find the value of "a" that minimizes the expression (a - b), we need to determine the value of "a" when the difference between "a" and "b" is at its lowest.

Given the options you provided, we can calculate the differences between "a" and "b" for each value of "a" and select the option that results in the smallest difference.

Let's calculate the differences for each option:

For a = 159:

Difference = 159 - 7 = 152

For a = 1000:

Difference = 1000 - 4 = 996

For a = 997:

Difference = 997 - 1 = 996

For a = 994:

Difference = 994 - 1 = 993

From the calculations above, we can see that the smallest difference is obtained when a = 994, resulting in a difference of 993.

Therefore, the value of "a" that minimizes the expression (a - b) is 994.
