<u>Interest </u>
This is exactly like the one with the 'n's that you posted yesterday.
I guess you didn't get enough help on that one to understand it.
<span><u>7k/8 - 3/4 - 5k/16 = 3/8</u>
3/4 is the same as 6/8.
Add it to each side of the equation:
7k/8 - 5k/16 = 9/8
Multiply each side by 16 :
14k - 5k = 18
Add up the 'k's on the left side:
9k = 18
From this point, you can proceed directly to the numerical value of 'k'
if you need it.<u />
In your question, you said you need help, and I showed you how to
strip the problem down so that the only thing left is ' k = something '.
Giving you the answer is no help. Nobody actually needs the answer.

<h3>Answer: Choice D</h3>
=======================================================
Explanation:
The long way to do this is to multiply all the fractions out by hand, or use a calculator to make shorter work of this.
The shortest way is to simply count how many negative signs each expression has.
The rule is: if there are an even number of negative signs, then the product will be positive. Otherwise, the product is negative.
For choice A, we have 3 negative signs. The result (whatever number it is) is negative. Choice B is a similar story. Choice C is also negative because we have 1 negative sign. Choices A through C have an odd number of negative signs.
Only choice D has an even number of negative signs. The two negatives multiply to cancel to a positive. The negative is like undoing the positive. So two negatives just undo each other. This is why the multiplied version of choice D will be some positive number.
Or you can think of it as opposites. If you are looking up (positive direction) and say "do the opposite" then you must look down (negative direction). Then if you say "do the opposite", then you must look back up in the positive direction.
32.5 is the correct answer
