B) the additive inverse of -3 is +3, so 17-(-3) = 20 is your answer.

Remember, two negatives = one positive, and so:

- (-3) = 3

17 + 3 = 20

Therefore, B is your answer

hope this helps

5/6-1/8 Solve by finding a common denominator<br><br> A)30/48<br> B)34/48<br> C)38/48<br> D)42/48
GrogVix [38]

Answer:

  B)  34/48

Step-by-step explanation:

The easiest common denominator to find is the product of the denominators you have.

__

The difference is ...

  \dfrac{5}{6}-\dfrac{1}{8}=\dfrac{5}{6}\cdot\dfrac{8}{8}-\dfrac{1}{8}\cdot\dfrac{6}{6}\\\\=\dfrac{40-6}{48}=\boxed{\dfrac{34}{48}}

__

<em>Additional comment</em>

The difference numerator and denominator have a common factor of 2, so can be reduced to 17/24. The denominator 24 could have been used as the common denominator from the start.

  5/6 -1/8 = 20/24 -3/24 = 17/24 . . . . reduced result

__

Using the <em>least common denominator</em> does not always result in a reduced sum or difference. If some other denominator is used (as here), then you can be assured that the result will need to be reduced to get to lowest terms.
