She is correct, first of all, to add 7/8 and 5/6; you must have common denominators so make 7/8 into 42/48 and make 5/6 into 40/48. Then just add them together now, and it will be 82/48. This when you divide 82/48 it will be 1 17/24. So, your answer is, yes, Kit is right.
Answer:
a) eight and seven ninths minus three and four sixths
Step-by-step explanation:
The required result is 
a)
b)
c)
d)
She underestimated by 60 cents. To get this answer all you need to do is multiply 1 dollar times 12 which is $12 and then multiply $.30 by 12 and that gives you $3.60. Then you add the $12 to the $3.60 and that gives you $15.60 which is 60 cents over the estimation.

Answer:
18
Step-by-step explanation:
90 = 18·5
126 = 18·7
180 = 18·10
990 = 18·55
The greatest common factor of these numbers is 18.

<em>Comment on the GCF</em>
It can be useful to know Euclid's algorithm for finding the GCF:
- Determine the remainder from dividing the larger number by the smaller.
- If the remainder is zero, the smaller number is the GCF. If the remainder is non-zero, use it to replace the larger number and repeat from step 1.
For example, 126 mod 90 = 36; 90 mod 36 = 18; 36 mod 18 = 0, so 18 is the GCF of 126 and 90. (The modulo function 'mod' returns the remainder from division.)
