Jesse has 6 stickers less than Sara.

Step-by-step explanation:

First: Find out what operation is needed to solve this question:

Every question has its step to being solved. There is always something that can help you find out what you have to do. I know that you'll get how to find out how to locate that piece of information, but for now, I'll just bold out the 'key' in the text:

Jesse has 2 stickers. Sara has 8 stickers. How many fewer stickers does Jesse have than Sara? Since we're finding out how many fewer, we are seeing how much less, we are finding the difference. And what type of operation is a difference the answer to? A subtraction equation! So we will be using subtraction to find our answer.

Second: Do the subtraction:

There are 2 ways to look at this:

1) 2 - 8

2) 8 - 2

There is an easy way to evaluate this. Simply answer each one and use your reasoning to find out which is more reasonable:

2 - 8 = (-6)

You can't really have a negative number of stickers, so this answer is not very trustworthy.

8 - 2 = 6

This answer is more reasonable because you can have a positive number of stickers.

So, we trust our judgement so we'll pick 8 - 2 = 6. So the solution to your question is 6.
