What is the sum of 1/4 and 3/8?

The sum of 1/4 and 3/8 is 5/8.

Subtract 2/3 from 1/2.

To subtract 2/3 from 1/2, we need to find a common denominator first. The common denominator between 2 and 3 is 6. Then, we need to convert 1/2 to have the same denominator. Therefore, 1/2 becomes 3/6. Now, we can subtract 2/3 from 3/6 to get 3/6 - 4/6 = -1/6. So, 1/2 - 2/3 is equal to -1/6.

Find the sum of 5/6, 1/3, and 2/5.

To find the sum of \( \frac{5}{6} \), \( \frac{1}{3} \), and \( \frac{2}{5} \), you first need to find a common denominator, which in this case is 30. Then, you convert each fraction to have the same denominator: \( \frac{5 \times 5}{6 \times 5} \), \( \frac{1 \times 10}{3 \times 10} \), and \( \frac{2 \times 6}{5 \times 6} \). Then add the numerators: \( \frac{25}{30} + \frac{10}{30} + \frac{12}{30} = \frac{47}{30} \). So, the sum of \( \frac{5}{6} \), \( \frac{1}{3} \), and \( \frac{2}{5} \) is \( \frac{47}{30} \).

Subtract 7/8 from 1.

To subtract 7/8 from 1, you can convert 1 to have a denominator of 8, so 1 = 8/8. Then subtract 7/8 from 8/8 to get 1/8 as the result.

What is the sum of 3/5 and 4/7?

To find the sum of 3/5 and 4/7, we need to find a common denominator. The least common multiple of 5 and 7 is 35. Therefore, converting 3/5 and 4/7 to have a common denominator of 35 gives us 21/35 and 20/35, respectively. Adding these fractions together results in 41/35.

Subtract 3/4 from 2/3.

To subtract 3/4 from 2/3, we first need to find a common denominator for both fractions, which in this case is 12. Then, we convert 2/3 to 8/12 and 3/4 to 9/12. Subtracting 9/12 from 8/12 gives us -1/12 as the result. Therefore, 2/3 - 3/4 = -1/12.

Find the sum of 2/9, 3/7, and 5/12.

To find the sum of 2/9, 3/7, and 5/12, you would need to add these fractions together. First, find a common denominator, which in this case is 252. Then convert each fraction to have the same denominator: 2/9 becomes 56/252, 3/7 becomes 108/252, and 5/12 becomes 105/252. Adding these together gives you a sum of 269/252.

Subtract 5/6 from 2/3.

To subtract 5/6 from 2/3, you need to find a common denominator first. The common denominator for 3 and 6 is 6. Rewrite the fractions with a common denominator: 2/3 becomes 4/6 and 5/6 remains the same. Then subtract 5/6 from 4/6 to get 4/6 - 5/6 = -1/6. So, 2/3 - 5/6 = -1/6.

What is the sum of 4/7 and 5/12?

The sum of 4/7 and 5/12 is 59/84.

Subtract 2/3 from 3/4.

To subtract 2/3 from 3/4, you need to find a common denominator, which is 12 in this case. Then convert the fractions to have the same denominator: 3/4 becomes 9/12 and 2/3 becomes 8/12. Finally, subtract 8/12 from 9/12 which gives you 1/12. Therefore, 3/4 - 2/3 = 1/12.
