Answer 1

Answer:

$( \frac{7}{10} - \frac{5}{8} )$ ÷ $\frac{1}{16} = \frac{6}{5}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$( \frac{7}{10} - \frac{5}{8} )$ ÷ $\frac{1}{16}$

first, do the equation in the bracket:

⇒ $\frac{7}{10} - \frac{5}{8}$

before solving, make sure both denominators are the same:

⇒ $\frac{7}{10} x 8 = \frac{56}{80}$

⇒ $\frac{5}{8} x 10 = \frac{50}{80}$

solve with new equations:

⇒ $\frac{56}{80} - \frac{50}{80}$

⇒ $\frac{6}{80}$

next take $\frac{6}{80}$ and divide it to $\frac{1}{16}$:

( when dividing fractions, multiply the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction = $\frac{6}{80}$  x $\frac{16}{1}$ )

⇒ $\frac{6}{80}$  x $\frac{16}{1}$

⇒ $\frac{96}{80}$

reduce the fraction:

⇒ $\frac{96}{80}$ = $\frac{6}{5}$
