Help me please with this Simplify. 5a-12a

1 answer:

4 0

It helps to imagine the variable a sort of as a unit. Like with 5 minus 12 lemons, it has no bearings on the addition/subtraction here.

Factor out a and subtract.

$5a-12a \\ (5-12)a \\ \boxed{-7a}$

Answer:

$\frac{6}{8}$ or $\frac{3}{4}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Convert the mixed numbers into improper fractions.

$2\frac{3}{8}-1\frac{5}{8}=\frac{19}{8}-\frac{13}{8}$

Since the two fractions have the same denominator, just subtract the numerators.

$\frac{19}{8}-\frac{13}{8}=\frac{6}{8}$

If required, rewrite the fraction in simplest form.

$\frac{6}{8}=\frac{3}{4}$
