Answer:

1/24

Step-by-step explanation:

We can't subtract two fractions with different denominators. So you need to get a common denominator. To do this, you'll multiply the denominators times each other... but the numerators have to change, too. They get multiplied by the other term's denominator.

So we multiply 11 by 8, and get 88.Then we multiply 7 by 12, and get 84.

Next we give both terms new denominators -- 12 × 8 = 96.

So now our fractions look like this:

88 /96 -84 /96

Step 2

Since our denominators match, we can subtract the numerators.

88 − 84 = 4

So the answer is:

4 /96

Step 3

Last of all, we need to simplify the fraction, if possible. Can it be reduced to a simpler fraction?

To find out, we try dividing it by 2...

Are both the numerator and the denominator evenly divisible by 2? Yes! So we reduce it:            

4 /96 ÷ 2 =2 /48

Let's try dividing by 2 again...

Are both the numerator and the denominator evenly divisible by 2? Yes! So we reduce it:

2 /48 ÷ 2 =1 /24

Let's try dividing by 2 again...

No good. 2 is larger than 1. So we're done reducing.                                    There you have it! The final answer is:

11 /12 -7 /8=1 /24

Answer:

1/24

Step-by-step explanation:

Given function:

  • 11/12-7/8

Simplifly the denominator:

  • \frac{11}{12}=\frac{88}{96}
  • \frac{7}{8}=\frac{84}{96}

Subtract the fraction term:

  • \frac{88}{96}-\frac{84}{96}=\frac{4}{96}

Simplifly the fraction term:

  • \frac{4}{96}=\frac{1}{24}

Therefore, 11/12-7/8=1/24.

Answer:

x = \sqrt{1}

Step-by-step explanation:

(x + 6 )^2 = 49

get rid of the square , by square rooting the 49

x + 6 = \sqrt{49}

x = \sqrt{49} -6

x = \sqrt{1}

\sqrt{49} means + or - hence it could be -7 -6 = -1 ... or  7-6 = 1

therefore the answer is = or -  1

hence in terms of roots .. answer is :

\sqrt{1}

Answer:

The perimeter is 100 feet. This means that all the sides of the shape must add up to equal 100.

x + x + 5 + x - 3 + x + 4 = 100

4x + 5 - 3 + 4 = 100

4x + 6 = 100

4x = 94

x = 94/4

x = 23.5 feet
