get a common denominator which is 24
3 7/8 = 3 21/24
6 /4 = 6 6 /24
3 21/24 - 6 6 /24
big number minus small number take sign of larger
6 6/24
- 3 21/24
-------------
5 30/24
3 21/24
--------------
2 9/24
2 3/8
the sign of the larger is negative
-2 3/8
3 and 17
17-3=14

Answer:
Question 2:
If the size of bacteria is 2000 initially and doubles after every half hour
It means in the 1st 30 min its size is 2000
And in 60 min its
30min=2000
60min=?
60×2000=120000
120000÷30
=4000
And in 9hrs
1hr=60min
9hrs=?
60×9=540min
30min=2000
540min=?
2000×540
=1080000÷30
=360000
I believe your answer would be C. Hope this helped!
