First you have to convert the denominators to the Lowest Common Multiple (unless the denominators are equal, of course).
Example 1/4 + 1/2
The LCM of 2 and 4 = 4 so we can write 1/2 as 1*2/2*2 = 2/4.
Now we can add:-
1/4 + 2/4 = 3/4.
Same thing goes for subtraction.
Example 2:-
5/6 - 1/7 :-
LCM of 6 and 7 = 6*7 = 42 so we have:-
5*7 / 6*7 - 1*6 / 7*6
= 35/42 - 6/42 = 29/42
Deductive reasoning is one that necessarily follows, not one that likely follows (this would be an inductive reasoning).
Here the important information is that all squares are also parallellograms, which means that they also necesarily have all the properties of the parallelogram - the correct answer is D.
Answer: (-2;8)

Step-by-step explanation:
Each piece = (4/5) yards
(4/5) yards * 3 feet = 2.4 feet each piece
which equals 2 feet 4.8 inches each
