To translate y - 5 into words:
a number y is decreased by 5
i hope this helps!!
Step-by-step explanation:
We can break this up into pieces, first we do, 7/8 - 1/4, find the least common denominator which is 8, so the equation will be 7/8 - 2/8, which we can now subtract and will give us, 5/8, now that we have done that, we can do 5/8 - 1/2. Since we know that half of 8 (our denominator) is 4. Then the equation would be 5/8 - 4/8, which brings us to 1/8 as our final answer.

11. Multiply 6 by 2. Answer is 6. Because when you multiply 8 by 2 you get 16.
12. Divide 24 by 4. You get 6. Now divide 42 by 6. The answer is 7.
P.S sorry if I'm wrong but I think I'm correct.
3 39/40 = 3.975
3 19/20 = 3.95
3 1/2 = 3.5
least to greatest : 3 1/2, 3 19/20, 3 39/40
