Answer:
18. 46
19. 0.7
22. 4 3/4
23. 54.5
26. 14
27. 11.5
31. 15
etc.
Step-by-step explanation:
absolute value means that the sign in front of the # doesn't matter, you just have to look at the positive value, for example:
absolute value of 46 = 46
absolute value of - 36 = 36
(imagine the sign in front of the # isn't there)
Step 1) turn 1.9 into an improper fraction.
= 19/10
step 2) find a least common denominator between 10 and 12.
= 60
(10x6 and 12x5)
step 3) convert the fractions so they have the same denominator.
= 19x6 is 114.
10x6= 60.
= 11x5 is 55.
12x5 is 60.
now you have your new fractions.
step 4) subtract.
= 114/60 - 55/60 is 59/60.
step 5) simplify.
the answer is either 0.9833... (3 repeating) or just 59/60 (you can't simplify the fraction any further).
Answer:
or 
Step-by-step explanation:
Convert the mixed numbers into improper fractions.

Since the two fractions have the same denominator, just subtract the numerators.

If required, rewrite the fraction in simplest form.

The opposite of -3.4 would be positive 3.4
