Question

Fill in the missing numbers.
__+-3.5=7.25
-3/4-__=1/2
-2 3/8-(-4 2/3) = __

Answer 1

10.75

-5/4

2 7/24

Explanation:

1.)

__+-3.5=7.25

Let missing number = x

x - 3.5 = 7.25

x = 7.25 +3.5

x = 10.75

2.)

-3/4-__=1/2

Let missing number = x

-3/4 - x = 1/2

-3/4 - 1/2 = x

(-3 - 2) / 4 = x

-5/4 = x

3.)

-2 3/8-(-4 2/3) = x

-2 3/8 + 4 2/3 = x

-19/8 + 14/3 = x

(-57 + 112) / 24 = x

55 / 24 = x

2 7/24
