Answer:

C = 27/40 or 0.675

Explanation:

1/8 + c = 4/5 opposite sign -

1/8 - 4/5 now multiply to make the same denominator

1/8 multiply 5 to both top and bottom = 5/40

4/5 multiply 8 to both bottom and top = 32/40

now subtract with the same denominator

32/40 - 5/40 = 27/40 now simplify

27/40 simplifies too 0.675
