The mixed number have to become a improper fraction and then you have to subtract like this.
so 7 7/8 you have to multiply 7 times 8 and then add it by 7 .
You do the same thing with the other mixed number 3 times 4 plus 1
So the first one is 63/8 - 13/4 =
first the 4 in the 13/8 have to become 8 . so you do 4 times 2 = 8 and multiply the 13 by 2 = 26 .
so equal
63/8 - 26/8 = then you have to do 63 - 26 = 37 so is 37/8 and then simplify or divide .
when you divide you suppose to get 4 5/8
Step-by-step explanation:
just add them all up and divide by the number of items. in this case divide by 10
Answer:
Third one? I'm not sure though.
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
The results don't make sense
Step-by-step explanation:
We can solve by means of a 2x2 system of equations, we have to:
"x" is the number of children's tickets
"y" is the number of adult tickets
Thus:
8 * x + 8.75 * y = 259
x + y = 35 => x = 35 - y
replacing we have:
8 * (35 - y) + 8.75 * y = 259
280 - 8 * y + 8.75 * y = 259
- 8 * y + 8.75 * y = 259 - 280
0.75 * y = -21
y = -21 / 0.75
y = -28
Thus:
x = 35 - (-28) = 63
With these results we notice that the problem has inconsistency, since the value of the tickets cannot be given a negative number, I recommend reviewing the problem, since the approach is correct.
