make them both fractions with the same bottom number
3-7/8 = 31/8
2-1/4 = 9/4 ( need to multiply by 2 to make it match ) so it becomes 18/8
now subtract 2 top numbers 31-18 = 13 so now you have 13/8
8/8=1 so 13-8 = 5 so the answer will be 1 and 5/8
Do you need them together or separate?
Answer:
No
Step-by-step explanation:
since 5/6 is not a whole it should be a little less than 5
–1 > –2(x – 4) – 5(4x – 7)
distribute
-1> -2x+8-20x+35
combine like terms
-1> -22x+43
subtract 43 from each side
-44> -22x
divide by -22 (remember to flip the inequality symbol)
2<x
