Respuesta :
-1.5
Step-by-step explanation:
So, you do 7.25 - 1 (because it is) and you get 6.25. Make it a fraction inton 25/4 and divide bu 75/8 (9 3/8 simplified) and you get -1.5 voila.
Answer:
x = 3/2
Step-by-step explanation:
7 1/4 = 7 + 1/4 = 28/4 + 1/4 = 29/4
9 3/8 = 9 + 3/8 = 72/8 + 3/8 = 75/8
then:
7 1/4 x = 29x/4
29x/4 - x = 75/8
29x/4 - 4x/4 = 75/8
25x/4 = 75/8
x = (75/8)/(25/4)
x = (75*4)/(8*25)
x = 300/200
x = 3/2
Checking:
(29/4)(3/2) = (29*3)(4*2) = 87/8
87/8 - 3/2 = 75/8
3/2 = 12/8
then:
87/( - 12/8 = 75/8
