Subtract 2_5/8 minus 1_1/3:
First, get the fractions to have a common denominator by multiplying the denominators together: 8*3 = 24
Rewrite both fractions with this new denominator:
5/8 needs to be multiplied by 3 on top and bottom to make it have a denominator of 24:
5/8 * 3/3 = 15/24
1/3 needs to be multiplied by 8 on top and bottom to make it have a denominator of 24:
1/3 * 8/8 = 8/24
Now that the fractions have been rewritten with the same denominator, subtract the mixed numbers:
2_15/24 - 1_8/24
Whole numbers:
2 - 1 = 1
Fractions:
15/24 - 8/24 = 7/24.

I believe you do it like this:
1/2 Q+5/2
divide 1/2 into each term
to divide multiply by the reciprocal
1/2 x2/1= 1
5/2 x 2/1=5
1/2(Q+5)
X = 2y
2x + 2y = 24
So if x = 2y that means 2x = 4y. Which means that 2x + 2y = 24 can be written as 4y + 2y = 24. Simplified to 6y = 24. Now we need to get 1y so we divide both sides by 6, 6y/6 = y and 24/6 = 4. so y = 4. so x= 2y can be written as x = 8.
