Monica Spent 7/9 hours listening too tapes of Beethoven and Brahms. She spent 1/4 hours listening too Beethoven. How many hours were spent listening to brahms.

Answer 1

is it 1 1/36

Answer 2

19/36

Answer 3

7/9-1/4

Answer 4

Can you type a simplified fractions.

Answer 5

((7*4)-(9*1) )/4*9

Answer 6

how would you do that and how?

Answer 7

together (beethoven and st.. tapes) =7/9
beethoven = 1/4
so st...= 7/9-1/4

Answer 8

so I subtract 7/9-1/4

Answer 9

yes

Answer 10

\[\frac{ 7 }{ 9 } - \frac{ 1 }{ 4 }\]You have to find the least common denominator. (LCD)
Factors of 9: 9,18,27,36
Factors of 4: 4,8,12,16,20,24,28,32,36

36 is the LCD.

Multiply the fractions by 4 and 9 to get denominators of 36.

Like this\[\frac{ 7 }{ 9 }\times \frac{ 4 }{ 4 } = \frac{ 28 }{ 36 }\]\[\frac{ 1 }{ 4 }\times \frac{ 9 }{ 9 } = \frac{ 9 }{ 36 }\]

\[\frac{ 28 }{ 36 }-\frac{ 9 }{ 36 } = \frac{ 19 }{ 36 }\]

Answer 11

oh ok. so 19/36 is the answer, because it cant be broken down.. Right

Answer 12

yes you are correct

Answer 13

Yes.

Answer 14

does that help

Answer 15

yes. you guys helped me alot. Thank you so much

Answer 16

You're welcome. :)

Answer 17

Istrasmann can you help me with another problem please

Answer 18

yes what is it?

Answer 19

ok. It says add too find the exact answer. Write the answer as a mixed number?
8 7/9 + 6 7/9=

Answer 20

\[14\frac{ 14 }{ 9 }\]which is also\[15\frac{ 5 }{ 9 }\]

Answer 21

oh ok, 14 14/9 is the answer too that problem.

Answer 22

How did you get 15 6/9

Answer 23

14/9 is 1 5/9 simplified

Answer 24

1 5/9 is the answer

Answer 25

Im getting confused now lol.

Answer 26

no but 14 and 14/9 is improper fraction. so to make it proper, the numerator has to be less than the denominator. so adding 1 5/9 to 14 is 15 5/9

Answer 27

so its 15 5/9 thats the answer. I think i get it now

Answer 28

yeah 15 5/9 is right

Answer 29

can you help me with 2 more plems please and Thank you

Answer 30

sure i can.

Answer 31

A man is 70 4/9inches tall and his son is 63 5/12inches tall. How much taller is the man..
Can you please help me with the step by step process

Answer 32

okay one second i have to check another question i'm overworked lol

Answer 33

ok

Answer 34

\[70\frac{ 4 }{ 9 } - 63\frac{ 5 }{ 12 }\]the LCD of 9 and 12 is 36.
now we need to multiply the fraction parts (not 70 and 63)
\[\frac{ 4 }{ 9 }\times \frac{ 4 }{ 4 } = \frac{ 16 }{ 36 }\]\[\frac{ 5 }{ 12 }\times \frac{ 3 }{ 3 }=\frac{ 15 }{ 36 }\]
now subtract the fraction then the numbers
\[\frac{ 16 }{ 36 }-\frac{ 15 }{ 36 } = \frac{ 1 }{ 36 }\]which cannot be further simplified.\[70-63=7\]so the answer is \[7\frac{ 1 }{ 36 }inches\]

Answer 35
