You could convert them into improper fractions first. 7 7/8 should become 63/8 and 3 1/4 should become 13/4. Then, change both fractions so they share a common denominator. I'll use 8. 
63/8-26/8 = 37/8, which is then converted into 4 5/8.
Hope that helped you.

The <em><u>correct answer</u></em> is:

4 5/8.

Explanation:

First we find the common denominator for the fractions. The first number that both 8 and 4 will go into is 8, so we will use 8.

We do not need to change the first number, as it is already in eighths.

For the second fraction: We can change 4 to 8 by multiplying by 2. Whatever we do to the denominator, we must do to the numerator, so we have 1*2 = 2. This gives us

7 7/8 - 3 2/8 = 4 5/8

Explain how to find the sum of 3/10 + 4/100
Neporo4naja [7]

Answer: 17/50

Step-by-step explanation:

First, to add fractions, we must find a common denominator, in this case, 100.

Then, we must make the fractions being added all have the common denominator.

So, we must multiply 3/10 * 10/10, which equals 30/100

30/100 + 4/100

Then, just add across the numerator to get 34/100, which can be simplified to 17/50

A line passes through (2, 9) and has a zero slope. Write an equation of the line satisfying the given conditions.
zubka84 [21]
Okay so for finding the equation of a line, which is a function, the equation is set to y, so you can eliminate A and B. When the slope of an equation is 0, we are saying that the y value of any point of the line is going to be the same, which is 9 from the given point (2,9).

So the answer is C. y=9

What is the 8th term of this geometric sequence 6,48,384,3072
ELEN [110]
Common ratio can be found by dividing the 2nd term by the first
r = 48/6
r = 8

an = a1 * r^(n-1)
n = term to find = 8
a1 = first number = 6
r = common ratio = 8
now we sub
a(8) = 6 * 8^(8-1)
a(8) = 6 * 8^7
a(8) = 6 * 2097152
a(8) = 12582912 <==
