Question

32 - 8 5 12subtract. reduce the answer to lowest terms.

Answer 1

We have

`32-8\text{ }(5)/(12)`

We need to convert to fraction

`(32)/(1)-(101)/(12)`

Then we need to have the same denominator in order to subtract them

`(32(12)-101)/(12)=(384-101)/(12)=(283)/(12)=23\text{ }(7)/(12)`

ANSWER

283/12= 23 7/12
