How do you subtract mixed numbers

Mathematics
1 answer:
saveliy_v [14]3 years ago
4 0
Each mixed number has to be converted to an improper fraction first. Then convert to common denominators.


= 8 5/6 - 2 4/9
convert to improper fractions

= 53/6 - 22/9
find common denominators; both denominators go into 18

= 159/18 - 44/18
subtract numerators

= 115/18
convert back to mixed number

= 6 7/18


ANSWER: 6 7/18

Hops this helps! :)

What function is f(x)=x^2
ozzi

Answer:

f (x) = x2 shows us that function " f " takes " x " and squares it. Example: with f (x) = x2: becomes an output of 16. In fact we can write f (4) = 16. The "x" is Just a Place-Holder! Don't get too concerned about "x", it is just there to show us where the input goes and what happens to it.
