8 1/2 - 3/8=?
pls answer fast ​

Sagot :

Answer:

65/8

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Turn all numbers into improper fractions: 17/2 - 3/8 = ?

2) Make all denominators the same number by finding the least common factor, which is 8. Multiply the denominator in 17/2, which is 2, by 4 to match the other denominator. And then multiply the numerator (17) by 4 as well so that the fraction still has the same value: 68/8 - 3/8 = 65/8

3) Can not simplify since there are no common factors between 65 and 8.
