Question

What is 8 1/6-3 7/12​

Answer 1

Answer: 4 7/12

Explanation:

Answer 2

`\huge\text{Hey there!}`

`\mathsf{8(1)/(6) - 3 (7)/(12)}`

`\mathsf{= (8*6 + 1)/(6) - (3*12 + 7)/(12)}`

`\mathsf{= (48 + 1)/(6) - (36 + 7)/(12)}`

`\mathsf{= (49)/(6) - (43)/(12)}`

`\mathsf{= (49)/(6)*(2)/(2) - (43)/(12)*(1)/(1)}`

`\mathsf{= (49*2)/(6*2) - (43*1)/(12*1)}`

`\mathsf{= (98)/(12) - (43)/(12)}`

`\mathsf{= (98 - 43)/(12 - 0)}`

`\mathsf{= (55)/(12)\rightarrow 4(7)/(12)}`

`\huge\text{Therefore your answer should be:}`

`\huge\boxed{\mathsf{4(7)/(12)}}\huge\checkmark`
