7 1/12 - 2 3/4
First we have to change mixed numbers to improper fractions
7 1/12 = 7 x 12 + 1 = 85 85/12
2 3/4 = 2 x 4 + 3 = 11 11/4
85/12 - 11/4
Now we need to find the LCD (least common denominator) for 4 and 12
4, 8, 12
12
12 is our LCD, so it becomes our new denominator
85/12 would stay the same because the denominator wasn't changed but for 11/4 our new denominator is 12, so our fraction will change.
11/4 = 33/12
4 goes into 12, 3 times. What you do to the bottom, you do to the top.
3 x 11 = 33
3 x 4 = 12
So, our new fraction is 33/12. Now we subtract
85/12 - 33/12 = 52/12
Now we convert back to a mixed number
52 ÷ 12 = 4 4/12 reduce
4 1/3
Hope this helps.
Jeremiah got $65 on birthday and spent some money on 3 video games and was left with $14.
He purchased 3 video games.
Let the cost one one video game be v.
The cost of each video game is same
So the cost of 3 video games is 3v.
Also he is left with $14 after paying for three games.
Hence
3v + 14 = 65
Subtracting 14 from both sides
3v + 14 -14 = 65-14
3v = 51
Dividing by 3 on both sides
v = 51/3
v = 17
Hence the cost of each video game is $17
They are both the same. There are 60 seconds in one minute, so 60*3 is 180. Since 180=180, they are equal.

Answer:
Pears: 30
Step-by-step explanation:
Constant:
3x + 5x + 2x = 150
10x = 150
x = 15
Multiply ratio with constant from above:
oranges : apples
3 * 15 : 5 * 15
45 : 75 ==> 45 oranges: 75 apples
pears : apples
2 * 15 : 5 * 15
30 : 75 ==> 30 pears: 75 apples
Check:
45 oranges + 75 apples + 30 pears = 150 fruits
