Answer:
4 2/7
Step-by-step explanation:
5/((8-1)/6)
5/(7/6)
(5/1)/(7/6)=(5/1)*(6/7)
=30/7
=4 2/7
[tex]\frac{11}{24}[/tex]
We require the denominators to be common
multiply numerator/denominator of 5/8 by 3 and 1/6 by 4, so that both fractions have a denominator of 24
= [tex]\frac{15}{24}[/tex] - [tex]\frac{4}{24}[/tex]
subtract the numerators leaving the denominator
= [tex]\frac{15-4}{24}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{11}{24}[/tex] in simplest form
