How do you subtract a fraction?

Mathematics
1 answer:
Anna [14]2 years ago
6 0

Answer: It's easy.

Step-by-step explanation: When the denominators of the two fractions you're subtracting are the same, in your answer they should also stay the same. Just subtract the numerators [top numbers].

When the denominators are <em>not </em>the same, if you can simplify the denominators so they can be the same number, do it.

For example: 2/4 - 1/2

Change 2/4 to 1/2 so that the equation turns into 1/2 - 1/2.

7.75 in expanded form
Elina [12.6K]

Answer: 7+0.7+0.05

Since 7 is in the ones place it goes in front of the decimal. .7 is in the tenth place because it's behind the decimal. .05 is also behind the decimal so it's in the hundredths place.

At the movie theatre, child admission is $5.70 and adult admission is $9.00 . On Tuesday, 163 tickets were sold for a total sale
alexandr402 [8]

Answer: 96 adult tickets were sold that day.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of children tickets that were sold at the movie theatre.

Let y represent the number of adult tickets that were sold at the movie theatre.

A total of 163 tickets were sold on Tuesday. This means that

x + y = 163

child admission is $5.70 and adult admission is $9.00. The total sales made on Tuesday was $1245.90. It means that

5.7x + 9y = 1245.90 - - - - - - - - 1

Substituting x = 163 - y into equation 1, it becomes

5.7(163 - y) + 9y = 1245.90

929.1 - 5.7y + 9y = 1245.90

- 5.7y + 9y = 1245.90 - 929.1

3.3y = 316.8

y = 316.8/3.3

y = 96

x = 163 - y = 163 - 96

x = 67
