Step-by-step explanation:
The amount of water in the bathtub per minute:4/9-8/9=-4/9;
liquid after:1/3* (-4/9)=-4/27
Answer: 3/8
Explanation: To subtract unlike fractions such as 5/8 - 1/4, first find a common denominator. The common denominator of 8 and 4 will be the least common multiple of 8 and 4 which is 8.
Notice that our first fraction already has 8 in the denominator so it stays the same. To get 8 in the denominator of 1/4, we multiply the numerator and denominator by 2 to get 2/8.
Now we have 5/8 - 2/8.
To subtract like fractions, we simply subtract the numerators to get 3 and keep our denominator of 8 and we have 3/8.
Since 3/8 is in lowest terms, it's our final answer.
Therefore, 5/8 - 1/4 = 3/8.
Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
It's A because she subtracted a negative and that only make a bigger negative where she should have added
X- 3.5 = 5.25
X = 8.75 (Add 3.5 to both sides)
