What is the answer to 13/4 - 5/8=

Mathematics

solmaris [256]4 years ago

In order to subtract one fraction from another, we need to make the denominator the same in both fractions.  The lowest common denominator is 8, because 4 is a factor of 8.

In order to make the denominators the same, multiply both the numerator and denominator of 13/4 by two.  This keeps the value of the fraction the same, but will equate the denominators.

\frac{13*2}{4*2} = \frac{26}{8}

At this point, we can simply subtract 5/8 from 26/8.

\frac{26}{8}- \frac{5}{8} =  \frac{21}{8}

21/8 cannot be simplified, so it is the answer.

Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Answer:

It's 16m

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say the missing side is C, and since the triangle is right-angle triangle, you can use Pythagoras theorem. Which is

C squared is equal to A squared plus B squared

Like this: c^2 = a^2+b^2

Then

c^2= (10)^2 + (12)^2

c^2= 100 + 144

c^2= 244

c=

\sqrt{244}

c = 15.6

Hope this helps :)

ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

5.33 unit

Step-by-step explanation:

logically FA = EA - EF = 13.33-8 = 5.33 units

Since, E, F and A all lie on the same line EA . The information ED=  units is redundant. Therefore we can say that FA= 5.33 unit
