Answer:
The fraction will decrease 
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x/y ----> the fraction
we know that
100%-50^=50%=50/100=0.50
100%-25%=75%=75/100=0.75
substitute

therefore
The percent that the fraction will decrease is equal to

You can't just change negative numbers into positive numbers. They're completely different things.
I'm sure you worked with the number line in school. Do you remember how the negatives are on one side of zero, and the positives are on the other side ?

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
so first we have to turn the fractions into mixed fractions, in order to do that we multiply the whole number by the denominator and add the numerator, our answer becomes the new numerator over the same denominator.

3 x 4 + 3
12 + 3
15

we do the same thing again.

1 x 3 + 1
3 + 1
4

then after we get our mixed fractions we subtract them from each other. Since the denominators are not the same we multiply to get the same denominators.



we subtract the numerators and keep the denominators.

then we simplify.

C because all you need to do is compare the 2 variables and then add the variables and the multiply it and then divide it. Then your golden.
