OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (liv1234):

You cannot give direct answers^^ @SeaRocks77

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sorry..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok fine

OpenStudy (anonymous):

can someone help

OpenStudy (liv1234):

I can. And after doing the math, I do have the answer, but I'd rather explain to you how to get the correct answer.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay

OpenStudy (liv1234):

So, the first step that you want to do is divide. Do you know what numbers we are going to divide?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no

OpenStudy (liv1234):

What are the numbers that are in the given equation?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

24 7 8

OpenStudy (liv1234):

Correct!

OpenStudy (liv1234):

So, divide those two numbers

OpenStudy (liv1234):

When you divide both the numbers did you get the answer of 192/7?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (liv1234):

And after getting 192/7 you come to the answer of 27 3/7, the correct answer is D.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thats what i said

OpenStudy (liv1234):

@SeaRocks77 Sorry for saying you were wrong, but I also wanted to show @doopy how to solve this!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so i divide 192/7

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok

OpenStudy (liv1234):

Yes.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok

OpenStudy (liv1234):

And then you will get a decimal and will convert that into a fraction and then the mixed number!(:
