We need a common denominator before we subtract. Both numbers go into 8. 5/8 stays as 5/8 and 1/2 becomes 4/8

Now we can subtract: 5/8 - 4/8
All we have to do is subtract the numerators (5 - 4) and keep the same denominator.

5 - 4 = 1

The answer is <span>1/8.</span>

C an anyone solve this 3(2b + 3)2 = 36<br> and if so what is it
Natali [406]
3(2b + 3)^2 = 36

Divide by 3 on both sides:
(2b + 3)^2 = 12

Square root both sides:
2b + 3=  \pm \sqrt{12}

Take away 3 from both sides:
2b= \pm \sqrt{12} - 3

Divide by 2 on both sides:
b=  \dfrac{ \sqrt{12} -3 }{2}  \ or \ b=  \dfrac{ -\sqrt{12} -3 }{2}

Answer:
b=  0.23 \ or \ -3.23
