Answer:
a) eight and seven ninths minus three and four sixths
Step-by-step explanation:
The required result is [tex]5\frac{6}{54}[/tex]
a)
[tex]8\frac{7}{9} -3\frac{4}{6}\\\\=\frac{79}{9} -\frac{22}{6} \\\\Simplifying\ the\ expression:\\\\=\frac{474-198}{54} \\\\=\frac{276}{54}\\\\=5\frac{6}{54}[/tex]
b)
[tex]6\frac{8}{9} -1\frac{5}{6}\\\\=\frac{62}{9} -\frac{11}{6} \\\\Simplifying\ the\ expression:\\\\=\frac{372-99}{54} \\\\=\frac{273}{54}\\\\=5\frac{3}{54}[/tex]
c)
[tex]4\frac{1}{6} +1\frac{1}{9}\\\\=\frac{10}{9} +\frac{25}{6} \\\\Simplifying\ the\ expression:\\\\=\frac{60+225}{54} \\\\=\frac{285}{54}\\\\=5\frac{15 }{54}[/tex]
d)
[tex]3\frac{3}{6} +2\frac{4}{9}\\\\=\frac{22}{9} +\frac{21}{6} \\\\Simplifying\ the\ expression:\\\\=\frac{132+189}{54} \\\\=\frac{321}{54}\\\\=5\frac{51 }{54}[/tex]
