Answer 2

Answer:

The value of $8\frac{5}{8} -10\frac{3}{4}$ is $-(2\frac{1}{8} )$.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : $8\frac{5}{8} -10\frac{3}{4}$

To find : The value of the above expression.

Solution :

• The given expression is $8\frac{5}{8} -10\frac{3}{4}$.
• We have to solve the above expression. Subtraction of two mixed fractions is given in the expression.
• Mixed fraction is the number which have both whole number and fractional number also.
• We can convert the mixed fraction into improper fraction as follows:

       $a\frac{b}{c} = \frac{ac+b}{c}$

• The given expression is,

       $8\frac{5}{8} -10\frac{3}{4}$ $= \frac{69}{8} - \frac{43}{4}$

• By cross multiplication, we get

              $= \frac{69*4-8*43}{8*4}$

              $= \frac{276-344}{32}$

              $=\frac{-68}{32}$

              $=\frac{-17}{8}$

              $= -(2\frac{1}{8})$              

• ∴ The value of $8\frac{5}{8} -10\frac{3}{4}$ is $-(2\frac{1}{8} )$.
