You out 1 in for A and 12 in for C 4(1)(12) = 48
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.
Answer:
40 mpg
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the unit rate which is 1/8 we just divide 15 by 3 which is 5 and to find the mpg of the full gallon now that we have the unit rate we just multiply the 1/8 or 5 miles by 8 which would give us 8/8 or 40 miles.
1/3
3/9
4/12
are equivalent to 2/6
