E. The answer is? With solution
6 1/12
Solution:
Set aside the whole numbers which is 8 and 2
Then subtract 3/4 from 2/3
Take the GCF of the Denominator of 3/4 and 2/3 12
Then Divide the GCF with the denominator 12 ÷ 4 and 12 ÷ 3
Then multiply it in numerator. 3 × 3 and 4 × 2
Lastly, put the products in the numerator and take the GCF in the denominator. It should like this. 9/12 and 8/12
Subtract it. 9/12 - 8/12 = 1/12
Then subtract the whole numbers. 8 -2 =6
6 + 1/12 is 6 1/12
