8/9 - 10/3 =

OpenStudy (goldphenoix):

You want to find a common denominator. So what's the least common multiple of 9 and 3?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

mmmmm , is it 3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

First, we'll need to get a common denominator by multiplying the top and bottom of the second fraction by 3. Or: \[\frac{ 8 }{ 9 } - \frac{ 30 }{ 9 } \] Which simplifies to \[\frac{ 8-30 }{ 9 } = \frac{ -22 }{ 9 }\]

OpenStudy (goldphenoix):

Nope.
