PLEASE ANSWER QUICK!! D:

Answer 1

Answer:
`3(7)/(10)` or
`(37)/(10)`

Explanation:

Hey there! I will give the following steps, if you have any questions feel free to ask me in the comments below. Follow these steps I made for you.

Step 1: Convert
`8(4)/(5)` to an improper fraction. Use this rule:
`a(b)/(c) = (ac + b)/(c)`.

`(8 * 5 + 4)/(5) - 5(1)/(10)`

Step 2: Simplify 8 × 5 to 40.

`(40 + 4)/(5) - 5(1)/(10)`

Step 3: Simplify 40 + 4 to 44.

`(44)/(5) - 5(1)/(10)`

Step 4: Convert
`5(1)/(10)` to an improper fraction. Use this rule
`a(b)/(c) = (ac + b)/(c)`.

`(44)/(5) - (50 * 10 + 1)/(10)`

Step 5: Simplify 5 × 10 to 50.

`(44)/(5) - (50 + 1)/(10)`

Step 6: Simplify 50 + 1 to 51.

`(44)/(5) - (51)/(10)`

Step 7: Find the Least Common Denominator (LCD) of
`(44)/(5), (51)/(10)`. In other words, find the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 5, 10.

LCD = 10

Step 8: Make the denominators the same as the LCD.

`(44 * 2)/(5 * 2) - (51)/(10)`

Step 9: Simplify. Denominators are now the same.

`(88)/(10) - (51)/(10)`

Step 10: Join the denominators.

`(88- 51)/(10)`

Step 11: Simplify.

`(37)/(10)`

Step 12: Convert to a mixed fraction.

`3(7)/(10)`
