The answer is 5 5/6 simplified to the max.
rewrite the equation with separated parts
-3 1/2 - 2 1/3
-3 - 2 = -5
-1/2 - 1/3? u need to find the LEAST common denominator
-3/6 - 2/6 = -5/6
how did I get 6?
Rewriting input as fractions if necessary:
1/2, 1/3
For the denominators (2, 3) the least common multiple (LCM) is 6.
Therefore, the least common denominator (LCD) is 6.
Now lastly combine them total and its -5 - 5/6 = -5 5/6.
Answer:
The total cost is $81.78
Step-by-step explanation:
First lets calculate the tip
tip = cost * percent of tip
tip = 65.42*.25
tip = 16.355
Which rounds to 16.36 since we are working with money and round to the nearest cent
total cost = cost of cut and blowout + tip
= 65.42 +16.36
=81.78
All of the answer choices that you are given are incorrect. I have calculated it in all different ways and get the same thing and it is none of those. The correct answer would be -75 though.
