Not necessarily. You could have done your multiplication wrong. Or in some cases, yes, you could have to use another skill. For example, you can't solve an optimization problem with addition, you need some calculus skills under your belt.

oops! it's too hard!!
i think i should need to do first so that i could provide you correct answer of it!!
Answer:
Each one of the sides is equal to 7d-5
Step-by-step explanation:
A regular pentagon has 5 sides of equal length.
The perimeter of a regular pentagon is given by
P = 5s where s is the side length
35d -25 = 5s
Divide each side by 5
(35d-25)/5 = 5s/5
7d-5 =s
Each one of the sides is equal to 7d-5
You first need to make the denominators on both fractions the same and how to do that is simple. What does 6 and 8 go into to? Well, the answer is 24. You multiply 5/6 into 4 and you should get 20/24. Then, you multiply 3/8 into 3 and you should get 9/24. Now the last part is easy, you just subtract 20/24 and 9/24 and you should get 11/24 as your answer. It cannot be simplified. Hope it helped.
