These problems are what is known as changing a mixed fraction to an improper fraction. Lets start with 5 1/8.
What we want to do is take the big number on the side and add it to the top of the fraction in a special way to make it an improper fraction. (An improper fraction means a fraction with a bigger top than bottom).
To add 5 to 1/8, we have to multiply 5 by 8 and then add it. 5 times 8 is 40 so if we add that to the top we know that the improper fraction we are looking for is 41/8.
We can do the same thing for 3 4/12, multiply 3 by 12 and add it to the top of the fraction. 3 times 12 is 36, add that to the top to get 40/12.
See if you can do 1 6/12 and comment with an answer, if you get it wrong I will keep helping you till we get this down!
The volume of a cuboid is the product of its dimensions.
(9.4 cm)·(5.4 cm)·(11.7 cm) = 593.892 cm³ ≈ 593.9 cm³
Answer:
-13/6 or (in mixed number form) -2 1/6
Step-by-step explanation:
Rewriting our equation with parts separated
=10+512−12−712
Solving the whole number parts
10−12=−2
Solving the fraction parts
512−712=−212
Reducing the fraction part, 2/12,
−212=−16
Combining the whole and fraction parts
−2−16=−216
Another way to do it:
Convert any mixed numbers to fractions.
Then your initial equation becomes:
125/12−151/12
Applying the fractions formula for subtraction,
=(125×12)−(151×12) / 12×12
=1500 − 1812/ 144
=−312/144
Simplifying -312/144, the answer is
=−2 1/6
