No she can not. She has 3/4 or 6/8 subtract the 3/8 and she has 3/8. Now she needs 1/2 or 4/8 she can not get it because 4/8>3/8.

How to solve -5 3/14 to the thousandths place?? Please help
Scrat [10]
First off, let's change the mixed fraction to "improper", and do the division then.

\bf \stackrel{mixed}{-5\frac{3}{14}}\implies -\cfrac{5\cdot 14+3}{14}\implies \stackrel{improper}{-\cfrac{73}{14}}\implies -73\div 14\approx -5.21428571

“Twelve decreased by twice a number equals-34. Write an equation for this situation and then find the number”
OLga [1]
2x-12=34 is the equation.
x=23

Explanation: "Twelve decreased" means that the number 12 is taken away from a certain amount. This certain amount is "twice a number" which means double a value. This value is the number that we do not know, so I used 'x' as a variable placeholder for this number. This is how I got the equation.

I then solved the equation using algebra to find the value of x. You begin this process by adding 12 to 34, which equals 46. I then divided this number by 2, which equals 12. This is the most simplified the equation can get, so 12 is the value number we are looking for.
