A pelican has a wingspan of 8 wholes 1/5 feet.

Answer:

The wingspan of a pelican is 1 8/15 feet longer than the wingspan of an eagle.

(1 whole 8/15 feet)

Step-by-step explanation:

We'll need to find a common denominator for the fractions. 15 is the lowest number divisible by both 5 and 3, so we'll use 15. For this problem, it's also easier to convert to improper fractions, in my opinion.

Pelican:

8 1/5 = 41/5

41/5 x 3/3 = 123/15

Eagle:

6 2/3 = 20/3

(20/3) x (5/5) = 100/15

Find the difference:

123/15 - 100/15 = 23/15 = 1 8/15

Please let me know if you have questions.

bixtya [17]

Answer:

$12

Step-by-step explanation:

24 x 0.25 = 6 ----- The 6 represents how much money is being taken off the original price

24 - 6 = 18 ---- the price of the shirt after sale was $18

24 - 18 = 6 ---- after the sale the socks were $6

6 + 6 = 12 ---- the original price of the socks

hope this helps!

What is 45.23 + -7.89 equal
snow_lady [41]
When you are adding a negative number you subtract it. The equation can be rewritten as:

45.23-7.89=37.34

When subtracting numbers with decimals, think of it like subtracting whole numbers but with a decimal point.

45.23
- 7.89

37.43

Your answer is 37.43.
