No, you do not have to line up the decimals.
Answer:
5. 43 / 6
6. 8.027778
2. -0.167
4. 1.5
Step-by-step explanation:
5. Conversion a mixed number to a improper fraction: 9 2/3 = 9 · 3 + 2 /3 = 29/3
Conversion a mixed number to a improper fraction: 2 1/2 = 2 · 2 + 1 /2 = 5/2
Subtract: 29/3 - 5/2 = 29 · 2 / 3 · 2 - 5 · 3 / 2 · 3 = 58 / 6 - 15 / 6 = 58 - 15 / 6 = 43 / 6
6. 2 4/9 + 5 7/12 = 289 / 36 = 81 / 36 = 8.027778
2. 3/4 - 11/12 = -1 / 6 =-0.1666667
4. 1 9/10 - 2/5 = 3 / 2 = 11 / 2 = 1.5
-1 over 1 you divide by 22
