7 1/4 - 5 3/4= 1 1/2 because you can either 1) change it into decimals: 7.25-5.75 and do simple subtraction or... 2) u can change the 7 to a 6 and add 4 to the numerator of 1/4 making the equation 6 5/4 - 5 3/4 = 1 2/4 which simplified to 1 1/2 I hope I didn’t confuse you! :))

Explain what |-13| means and how to simplify.
poizon [28]

The two bars ( | | ) symbolize absolute value

Absolute value is essentially just making the number given positive.

If the given number is already positive then the absolute value is the same as the original number

|-13| is 13

The absolute value of -13 is 13

Hope this helped!
