Sagot :


because you would take 3/4 and multiply it by 3/3 to get the denominator to 12
and you would multiply 1/3 by 4/4 again to get the denominator to 12.
You are getting the denominator to 12 because 12 is 3 and 4s Most Common multiple!
Now that you have multiplied them you should have 9/12 and 4/12 
Then you subtract 4 from 9 to get 5.
So the answer is 5/12!

#1. D. [tex] \frac{9}{14}* \frac{-7}{12} = \frac{-63}{168}= \frac{-3}{8} [/tex]

#2. A. [tex] \frac{1}{3} of \frac{3}{4}=0.25= \frac{1}{4} [/tex]
