I need help solving 12 1/4 - 5 2/3 I’m having trouble

Mathematics
1 answer:
Lady_Fox [76]4 years ago
8 0

Answer:

6 7/12

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to get a common denominator, which is 12

12 1/4 - 5 2/3

12 1/4*3/3 - 5 2/3*4/4

12 3/12 - 5 8/12

We will need to borrow from the 12 since 3/12 is less than 8/12.  Write the 1 we borrow as 12/12

11 + 12/12 + 3/12 - 5 8/12

11 15/12 - 5 8/12

6 7/12

Answer:

56 mins

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of gallons of water in the pool per minute;

750 divided by 35 = 150/7

t x 150/7 = 1,200

t x 21.42857142857143... = 1,200

t = 1,200/21.42857142857143

t = 56 mins

sergey [27]

Answer:

See steps below

Step-by-step explanation:

-3(2x+7)=-29-4x

Use the distributive property

-6x-21=-29-4x

Add 21 to each side

-6x=-8-4x

Add 4x to both sides

-2x=-8

Divide by -2

x=4
