What is 10 - 4 and 2/3?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: 10 - 4 2/3

First, we convert mixed fraction into improper fraction.

4 2/3 = ((4*3)+2)/3 = 14/3

In subtracting fractions:
1) Both must have the same denominator.
10 is 10/1 and 14/3 have different denominators. 

2) Once they have the same denominator, then subtraction may be performed.

10 - 14/3 = 10 * 3/3 - 14/3 = 30/3 - 14/3 = 16/3

3) 16/3 must be simplified.

16/3 = 5 1/3

10 - 4 2/3 = 5 1/3

Lesson 2.7:
1) / divide 195 by 18 to get 10.833.
/ to get the whole number, round up to get '11'.
11 cartons


Lesson 2.8:
3) 
588 ÷ 847
5) 6,681 ÷ 53 = 126 with a remainder of 3

Lesson 2.9:
1) / let 'x' equal the inches of snow that reidville gets
/ '12x' equal the inches of snow that greenboro gets
/ you should set up the problem like: x + 12x = 65
/ add 'x + 12x' to get '13x'. 
/ divide both sides by '13'.
/ 5 goes into 13 to get 65. simplify the fraction to '5'.
x = 5
Reidville gets 5 inches of snow

2) / let 'x' equal the miles ansley ran in one month
/ you should set up the problem like: 15x + x = 192
/ add '15x + x' to get '16x'
/ divide both sides by '16'
/ 12 goes into 16 to get 192. simplify the fraction to 12.
/ x = 12
Ansley runs 180 miles (Zack only runs 12)
