The 1905 was 3.0 inches while 2004 was 4.2 inches since they are 1.2 apart and they add up to 7.2

What is the answer to this math question 2 1/12-5 5/6

AleksandrR [38]

<em><u>The solution is:</u></em>

$2\frac{1}{12} - 5\frac{5}{6} = \frac{-15}{4} \text{ or } -3.75$

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

We have to solve the given expression

<em><u>Given expression is:</u></em>

$2\frac{1}{12} - 5\frac{5}{6}$

<em><u>Let us first convert the mixed fraction to improper fraction</u></em>

Multiply the whole number part by the fraction's denominator.

Add that to the numerator.

Then write the result on top of the denominator.

Thus we get,

$2\frac{1}{12} = \frac{2 \times 12 + 1}{12} = \frac{25}{12}$

$5\frac{5}{6} = \frac{ 5 \times 6 +5}{6} = \frac{35}{6}$

<em><u>Thus the given expression becomes,</u></em>

$2\frac{1}{12} - 5\frac{5}{6} = \frac{25}{12} - \frac{35}{6}$

Make the denominators same for easier calculations

$2\frac{1}{12} - 5\frac{5}{6} = \frac{25}{12} - \frac{35 \times 2}{6 \times 2}\\\\2\frac{1}{12} - 5\frac{5}{6} = \frac{25}{12} - \frac{70}{12}\\\\2\frac{1}{12} - 5\frac{5}{6} = \frac{25-70}{12}\\\\2\frac{1}{12} - 5\frac{5}{6} =\frac{-45}{12}$

<em><u>Reducing to lowest terms, we get</u></em>

$2\frac{1}{12} - 5\frac{5}{6} = \frac{-15}{4}$

<em><u>In decimal form, we get</u></em>

$\rightarrow \frac{-15}{4} = -3.75$

<em><u>Thus the solution is:</u></em>

$2\frac{1}{12} - 5\frac{5}{6} = \frac{-15}{4} \text{ or } -3.75$

Solve for m/TRS if m/QRS = 88° and m/QRT = 54°.<br> ?<br> Answer: m/TRS =<br> Submit Answer

Citrus2011 [14]

The measure of the angle TRS is 34 degrees

<h3>Line and angles</h3>

The point where two lines meet is known as an angle

Given the following parameters

<QRS = 88 degrees

<QRT = 54 degrees

Using the expression

<QRS = <QRT + <TRS

Substitute the given parameters

88 = 54 + <TRS
<TRS = 88 - 54

<TRS = 34 degrees

Hence the measure of the angle TRS is 34 degrees
