Before you can add or subtract fractions with different denominators, you must first find equivalent fractions with the same denominator, like this:
Find the smallest multiple (LCM) of both numbers.
Rewrite the fractions as equivalent fractions with the LCM as the denominator.

When you add or subtract fractions, the denominators must be the same. Then you add or subtract the numerators and have that same denomenator

Gonna do a little subbing here...

for 40 pgs of express proof reading....3 bucks per pg...c = 3
40(3) - 0.05(40(3)) = T
120 - 0.05(120) = T.....120 - 6 = T.....114 = T
so express proofreading cost 114

for 40 pgs of basic proof reading....c = 3.95
40(3.95) - 0.05(40(3.95) = T
158 - 0.05(158) = T....158 - 7.9 = T.....150.10
so basic proof reading costs 150.10

for 40 pgs of extended proof reading....c = 5
40(5) - 0.05(40(5) = T
200 - 0.05(200) = T....200 - 10 = 190
so extended proof reading is 190

no need to go further....the extended proof reading is gonna be ur answer...the best quality of editing that keeps it at 190
