First you have to make both fractions have the same denominator, so you can multiply each fraction by the others denominator.
5/8
To
(5*6)/(8*6)
And
1/6
To
(1*8)/(6*8)
Now it's 6 30/48 - 2 8/48
= 4 22/48
Now reduce to
= 4 11/24
So, 4 11/24 is the answer
Answer:
b = 12.6
Step-by-step explanation:
a*2 + b*2 = c*2
6*2 + b*2 = 14*2
36 + b*2 = 196
Subtract 36 from both sides
36 + b*2 = 196
-36 -36
b*2 = 160
Find the square root of both
b = 12.64911064 or 12.6
