3/4 and 3/8 have to have equal denominators, so multiply 3/4 by 2/2 because it's equal to one, so it doesn't change the value of the fraction, but it makes the denominator (the number on the bottom) bigger.
3/4 x 2/2 = 6/8
Now subtract.
6/8 - 3/8 = 3/8
Don't subtract the denominators.
3/8 can't be simplified.
Answer:
5.98
Step-by-step explanation:
2.99 * 1= 2.99
2.99+2.99= 5.98
First you had to multiply 2.99 by 1 because 100% in decimal is 1.
You get 2.99 and you add it to the original price.
And that is how you get 5.98
