Question

3/8 = r + 2/3 I really need help I don't get it!!

Answer 1

-7/24 is the correct answer.

Answer 2

-7/24 = r

Explanation:

3/8 = r + 2/3

Subtract 2/3 from each side

3/8-2/3 = r + 2/3-2/3

3/8 - 2/3 = r

Get a common denominator or 24

3/8 *3/3 - 2/3 *8/8 =r

9/24 - 16/24 =r

-7/24 = r
