Question

Subtract 7 9/16 - 4 2/4

Answer 1

3.0625 or 3 1/16

Explanation:

So first Im just gonna subtract 7 - 4. (3)

So we multiply 9 by 4, and get 36.

Then we multiply 2 by 16, and get 32.

Next we give both terms new denominators -- 16 × 4 = 64.

Which yknow = 36/64 and 32/64.

Since our denominators match, we can subtract the numerators.

36 − 32 = 4 So it is 4/64..

Now we want to simplify so we divided by 2.

2/32 and 1/16

And we cant simplify It anymore because 2 is larger than 1.

So its 1/16th!! :D

Answer 2

4.50625 or 4 81/60. Hope this helps you!
