Answer:

3/8

Step-by-step explanation:

5/8 - 1/4

Here the LCM is 8 so we need to multiply 1/4 by 2/2 to get 8 as the denominator.

5/8 - 2/8

Since the denominator is same we can do

(5-2)/8

= 3/8

Answer:

30 to 50 more feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Add up all the sides to find the perimeter of the shape for the pen:

18 + 22.5 + 5 + 4.5 = 50

Since 50 is less than 80 to 100, then Annie has 30 to 50 more feet she can use for the pen.
