Use the line. line it up line up the triangle
9) > cause 1 fl oz is .125 of a cup and multiply that by 96 which is 12 cups which is less than 13 cups
10)> cause 1 lb is 16 oz, multiply 16 by 25 which is 400, which is greater than 384 cups
11) = cause 1 yd is 36 in, so you would multiply 36 in by 8, which is 288 inches, which is the same
The first step to solving this is converting these mixed numbers into improper fractions. You would do that by multiplying the denominator by the whole number and adding the numerator to that number; this number replaces the numerator. It would look something like this:
1 8/10 --> 18/10
2 2/5 --> 12/5
Now, to subtract the second fraction from the first one, the denominators of both fractions must be the same. We can make them the same by multiplying the second fraction by 2:
12/5 * 2/2 = 24/10
Now we can set up the equation as:
18/10 - 24/10 = -6/10 --> -3/5
The answer is negative 3/5.
I hope this helps.
