How do you subtract mixed numbers

1 answer:

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! :)

How do i do this? Its confusing

cestrela7 [59]

Answer:

$12,415.48

Step-by-step explanation:

A = P (1 + r/n)^(nt)

where A is the final amount,

P is the initial amount,

r is the annual interest rate as a decimal,

n is the number of compoundings per year,

and t is the number of years.

A = 8000 (1 + 0.152/2)^(2×3)

A = 8000 (1.076)^6

A = 12415.48
