Answer:

1/4 = 0.25

Step-by-step explanation:

2/3 - 5/12

Least common multiple of 3 and 12 is 12. Convert 2/3 and 5/12 to fractions with denominator 12.

8/12 - 5/12

Since 8/12 and 5/12 have the same denominator, subtract them by subtracting their numerators.

8-5/12

Subtract 5 from 8 to get 3.

3/12

Reduce the fraction 3/12 to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 3.

1/4

Expand 6(x-8)= x- (8) = help me
maksim [4K]

Answer:

x = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

6(x-8)= x- (8)

6x - 48=x - 8

6x- 48 + 48 = x - 8 + 48

6x = x + 40

6x - x = x + 40 - x

5x = 40

5x/5 = 40/5

x = 8

Hope it helps! :)
