A because you have to subtract 8 and 5 and you get 3 and don’t change the bottom so it’s 3/14

Answer:

3/13

Explanation:

8/13 subtract by 5/13. If the denominator is the same, you keep it, don't change it. Just subtract the numerator.

Make sure to simplify, if it is already simplified that will be the answer.
