the problem is a pattern that multiplies by two and subtracts one each time.
3x2=6 6-1=5 5x2=10 10-2=9 9x2=18 18-1=17 17x2=34 34-1=33
Keep the denominators the same and subtract the numerators. So for example in your example:
7/8 - 3/8
Leave the 8 alone. Subtract 3 from 7.
7 - 3 = 4
So answer is:
4/8
Sometimes they may have to simplify the answer, and in this case, 4/8 could be simplified to 1/2
What's your question so I could help?
