3/4 -3/8 in simplest form?

3/4 and 3/8 have to have equal denominators, so multiply 3/4 by 2/2 because it's equal to one, so it doesn't change the value of the fraction, but it makes the denominator (the number on the bottom) bigger.
3/4 x 2/2 = 6/8
Now subtract.
6/8 - 3/8 = 3/8
Don't subtract the denominators.
3/8 can't be simplified.

$\frac{3}{4}-\frac{3}{8}= \ \ \ \ | make\ common\ denominator\\\\
\frac{6}{8}-\frac{3}{8}=\frac{6-3}{8}=\frac{3}{8}\\\\Solution\ is\ \frac{3}{8}.$

Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

7, 10, 17

Step-by-step explanation:

4m can' t be the third side because the second side, 12m must be less than the sum of the first and third sides and can't be 19m because 19 must be less than the sum of the first and second sides.

As a rule, the measure of a side of a triangle must be less than the sum of the measures of the 2 other sides
