How do you solve 3 1/4- 1 7/8 step by step?

Mathematics

Vilka [71]3 years ago

Answer:

1 3/8.

Step-by-step explanation:

3 1/4 - 1 7/8

First convert to improper fractions:

3 1/4 = (3*4) + 1 / 4 =  13/4.

1 7/8 = (1 *8)+7 / 8 = 15/8. So we have:

13/4 - 15/8

The Lowest Common Multiple of 4 and 8 is 8 so we convert 13/4 to eighth's

13 / 4 = 13*2 / 4 *2 = 26/8

Finally: we have

26/8 - 15/8 = (26 - 15) /8

= 11 /8

= 1 3/8 (answer)

Terrell ran 1,000 meters more than Victor. That's the answer because if you know 1 kilometer = 1,000 meters than do 3 kilometers times 1 kilometer = 3,000 meters. Than do 4,000 meters -3,000 meters  to get 1,000 meters. so the answer is Terrell ran 1,000 meters more than Victor.

I wasn't in school today can someone explain how to do this
Pachacha [2.7K]
You have to multiply 7 3/4 to 9.

First, turn 7 3/4 to an improper fraction which is 31/4.
Next, you multiply 31/4 to 9/1(same thing as 9) across from each other.
Then, you get the answer 279/4(31 x 9 = 279 ;4 x 1 = 4; 279/4).
Last divide 279 to 4 and get 67.75( .75 = 3/4 ; 69 3/4).
