SUBTRACT 14/16 FROM 8 10/16
You asked:
Evaluate the expression: \(8\frac{10}{16} - \frac{14}{16}\)
MathBot Answer:
\[ 8\frac{10}{16} - \frac{14}{16} = \frac{31}{4} = 7.75 \]
The sum can be computed by rewriting each term over a common denominator, where the least common denominator of \(\frac{8}{1}\), \(\frac{10}{16}\), and \(\frac{-14}{16}\) is \(16\). \[ \begin{aligned} 8\frac{10}{16} - \frac{14}{16} &= \frac{8 \cdot 16}{1 \cdot 16} + \frac{10 \cdot 1}{16 \cdot 1} + \frac{-14 \cdot 1}{16 \cdot 1} \\ &= \frac{128 + 10 + -14}{16} \\ &= \frac{124}{16} \\&= \frac{31}{4} \end{aligned} \]
