Question

Which of the following is a true statement?

Answer 1

Answer:

The last choice: 68/5 - 22/5 = 9 1/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve each problem:

9 3/7 = 10 3/7

The fractions are the same so look at the whole numbers.

Does 9 equal 10? No, it doesn't so this is a false statement.

332/4 = 1/83

Simplify 332/4:

332/4 = 83/1

83 does not equal 1/83 so this is a false statement.

37/5 = 5 2/5

Convert the improper fraction into a mixed number:

7 2/5 = 5 2/5

These numbers do not equal each other so this is a false.

68/5 - 22/5 = 9 1/5

Subtract the numerators on the left side of the equation:

46/5 = 9 1/5

Convert the improper fraction into a mixed number:

9 1/5 = 9 1/5

These numbers equal each other so this is a true statement!
