7 1/4 - 2 4/5
Turn the denominator into a common denominator for both fractions:
7 5/20 - 2 16/20
To subtract easier, turn the fractions into an improper fraction:
145/20 - 56/20
Subtract the numerators:
145 - 56 = 89 ---> 89/20
Simplify (to get an answer of):
4 9/20 
Add labels:
Joseph has 4 9/20 ounces of candy left

If y varies directly as​ x, and y=8 when x=3​, find y when x=15.
Crank

Answer:

y=40

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for Direct Variation is y=kx or k=y/x. In this case I would use k=y/x. If you're y is 8 and x is 3, this means that K=8/3. Using this, we know that X=15. We have to find a Y value so that the fraction with an x of 15 simplified is 8/3. To do this you would write 8/3 and y/15. Now cross multiply to get 3y=120. Divide by 3 to get y=40.
