What do you need help with
Step-by-step explanation:
well, the first solution that comes to my mind is :
8/4 + 5/1 = 7/1
2 + 5 = 7
the reason : the only numerator I can "cut" into integer pieces is 8.
5 and 7 are prime numbers.
so, it tried to keep 5 and 7 whole, and then add a part of 8 to make this equation true. and that worked right away.
Answer:
4 7/20
Step-by-step explanation:
8 1/4 - 3 9/10
get a common denominator of 20
8 1/4 *5/5 - 3 9/10 *2/2
8 5/20 - 3 18/20
borrow 1 from the 8 in the form of 20/20
7 +20/20 + 5/20 - 3 18/20
7 25/20 - 3 18/20
4 7/20
