Sagot :

7/24 is 14/48 reduced, so the answer is C

Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

4/6 - □/8 = 14/48

Times the fractions on the right to get them both to have 48 as their denominator (the number on the bottom)

4/6 (8/8) - □/8 (6/6) = 14/48

32/48 - (□•6)/48 = 14/48

Across the top of this math sentence it says:

32 - 6□ = 14

By algebra class, we're using a variable for that blank space

32 - 6x = 14

-6x = -18

-6x/-6 = -18/-6

x = 3
