What’s the calculation of the equation 5/8-1/4=

Mathematics
1 answer:
Kay [80]3 years ago
4 0

Answer: 3/8

Explanation: To subtract unlike fractions such as 5/8 - 1/4, first find a common denominator. The common denominator of 8 and 4 will be the least common multiple of 8 and 4 which is 8.

Notice that our first fraction already has 8 in the denominator so it stays the same. To get 8 in the denominator of 1/4, we multiply the numerator and denominator by 2 to get 2/8.

Now we have 5/8 - 2/8.

To subtract like fractions, we simply subtract the numerators to get 3 and keep our denominator of 8 and we have 3/8.

Since 3/8 is in lowest terms, it's our final answer.

Therefore, 5/8 - 1/4 = 3/8.

(3x + 5)(x2 + 6x +11)<br> multiply
viva [34]

Answer:

3x³ + 23x² + 63x + 55

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

(3x + 5)(x² + 6x + 11)

Each term in the second factor is multiplied by each term in the first factor, that is

3x(x² + 6x + 11) + 5(x² + 6x + 11) ← distribute both parenthesis

= 3x³ + 18x² + 33x + 5x² + 30x + 55 ← collect like terms

= 3x³ + 23x² + 63x + 55
