Hello there, and thank you for posting your question here on brainly.

So, w > 50 and x < 40 can be any possible number, but w can only be larger than 50, and x can only be less than 40.

You need to find the largest number for w, and the largest number for x, so we can get the smallest number.

w can equal 51, and x can equal 39.

The smallest number possible is 12.

Hope this helped!! ☺♥

The smallest possible value of the expression (W - X) is 12 and this can be determined by using the definition of the whole number.

Given :

  • W and X are whole numbers.
  • W > 50 and X < 40.

All positive integers are called whole numbers. The whole number does not include fraction, negative and decimal numbers.

So, according to the given data, the numbers W and X are whole numbers. And it is also given that W > 50 and X < 40.

So, the possible value of W and X is given by W = 51 and X = 39.

So, the smallest possible value of the expression (W - X) is given by:

W - X = 51 - 39 = 12.
