The difference between mixed numbers gives:
-5¹/₆ - (-8¹/₂) = 3¹/₃
So the correct option is the third one.
<h3 /><h3>How to get the difference between mixed numbers?</h3>
Here we want to compute the difference between two mixed numbers.
First, remember that we can rewrite those as:
-5¹/₆ = (-5 - 1/6)
-8¹/₂ = (-8 - 1/2)
Now, let's go to the difference:
-5¹/₆ - (-8¹/₂)
First you can see that there are two negative signs together, so it is equivalent to a positive sign:
-5¹/₆ - (-8¹/₂) = -5¹/₆ + 8¹/₂
Now we can replace the mixed numbers to get:
-5¹/₆ + 8¹/₂ = (-5 - 1/6) + (8 + 1/2) = (8 - 5) + (1/2 - 1/6) = (3 + 2/6) = 3 + 1/3
And that can be rewritten to:
3 + 1/3 = 3¹/₃
Which is completely simplified.
So we conclude that the correct option is the third one, counting from the top.

20/21 is the answer to your problem.
Answer:
20 times greater
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the following
Population of alaska = 6.5 * 10^(5) people
Population of illinois's = 1.3 * 10^(7)people.
To know the number of times population of Illinois in the population of Alaska, we will take their population ratio;
Ratio = Population of illinois's /Population of alaska
Ratio = 1.3 * 10^(7)/6.5 * 10^(5)
Ratio = 0.2 * 10^7-5
Ratio = 0.2 * 10^2
Ratio = 20
Hence the population of Illinois is 20 times greater than population of alaska

Step-by-step explanation:
Welllllll.....
If you take the square root of 9, it's 3
if you take the square root if 16, it's 4
I would guess it to be about 3.2
The only ways i thought of was 0.7, 0.70, and 0.700 .
