Question

How much greater than 8 1/3 - 6 1/4 8 1/3 + 61/4

Answer 1

d. 12 1/2

EXPLANATION :

We need to get the difference between two fractions to determine how much greater the other fraction is.

That will be :

`\begin{gathered} (8(1)/(3)+6(1)/(4))-(8(1)/(3)-6(1)/(4)) \\ \text{ the fraction 8 1/3 will just cancelled out and the fractions 6 1/4 will add up :} \\ \cancel{8(1)/(3)}+6(1)/(4)-\cancel{8(1)/(3)}+6(1)/(4)=12(2)/(4)\quad or\quad12(1)/(2) \end{gathered}`

The answer is 12 1/2
