Okay first you should look at the denominator and if the denominator are the same you could subtract easily but in this case the denominator are different so you see which denominator is the biggest one and try to chose the small one. So basically what four times what equals to 16 given the 4 and then you multiply the fraction 3/4 by 4 and giving 12/16 and then you subtract and giving the answer 3/16

The answer is 3/16

This is how I got it
=(15*4) - (3*16)
I got 12 then I did 16 *4 and it's 64 so I put the number in like fraction so it's 12/64
I divide 12 ÷4 and 64 ÷ 4

I got 3/16.

A. Since the ribbons come in rolls of 15, we need groups of 15 yards. Since we are told that we have 322 yards. We have to find a way to express this number into groups of 15. To do that we can simply divide. 322 /15 = 21.466... since we can’t have one fourth of a role, we have to buy a whole one to be able to get that .4. So, Quincy needs 22 roles.

B. Twice means two times something. So all you do is multiply 322( the number of yards Quincy needs) times 2 = 644. Alice needs 644 yards of ribbon.

C. All you have to do is break 285 yards into 3 groups so: 285/3= 95. So, Elena needs 95 yards of yellow, 95 yards of red, and 95 yards of blue.

Hope this helped and pls mark as brainliest!

The answer is D. A straight line equals 180°, so when you subtract 180°( your straight line) and the angle it gives you (52°) you get 128°. 180°-52° = 128°

How do i make a # line with fractions and decimals?

Ulleksa [173]

Easy..

let's take a view fractions and decimals and make a little example ourselves...

Let's use: $\frac{1}{4}$ , 0.75, $\frac{1}{2}$ , and 1

Keep it simple...

So, now let's plot those on a number line...it's fairly easy...

Just change those fractions into decimals to make them easier to manage...

$\frac{1}{4} =0.25$
and
$\frac{1}{2} =0.50$

Leaving you with: 0.25,0.75,0.50, and 1.

Now, plot..

0 | | | | | | | | | | | | | 1

(0.25) (0.50) (0.75) (1)

Easy. :D
