Answer 1

-6 5/8

To solve this equation for v, we need to get v by itself on one side of the equation. To do this, we can subtract 6 from both sides of the equation:

`\displaystyle -(5)/(8) - 6= v \\\\-(5)/(8) - (48)/(8) =v\\\\-(53)/(8) =v`

To convert a fraction in the form of a/b to a mixed fraction, we can divide a by b and then write the quotient as the whole number part of the mixed fraction and the remainder as the numerator of the fractional part, with the denominator being the same as the denominator of the original fraction.

In this case, we have a/b = -53/8. To convert it to a mixed fraction, we can divide -53 by 8: -53/8 = -6 R 5

So, -53/8 as a mixed fraction is -6 5/8.
