Question

24 4/8 - 19 5/8 STEP BY STEP EXPLANATION

Answer 1

Answer:

First, in order to subtract these two fractions you must convert it into improper fractions. For the first one, we can convert it by multiplying the denominator by the whole and adding the numerator which would give you 196/8 for the first one and 157/8 for the second one. This equation would now set up as 196/8-157/8 which would be 39/8 and since you need to convert it back into a mixed fraction we need to know how many times 8 can go into 39 which is 4 so 32 and a remainder of 7. Your answer would be 4 7/8
