If somebody could please help me on a college algebra problem. I need to simplify this problem : 5/6*(2/3-1/6)+7/18 I started out by reducting it to (4/6 - 1/6) 5/6*3/6+7/8 than somehow got 15/6+7/8 but than i got stuck. So could somebody please help me and show me how to do this? That'd be great. Thank you! :)

how many 1/8's are there in 2 5/8?

this is essentially a fraction division problem: 

how do you simplify problems like 12(2/3)

1/5 ofthe time table for a class is given to english and 1/8 to math what is the fraction left for other subject

1-1/5-1/8=40/40-8/40-5/40=27/40

A fraction that is greater than 4/5 but less than 5/6

4/5=24/30=48/60
5/6=25/30=50/60
so we choose 49/60

what is 41 3/4 percent as a fraction and also what is 61 1/4 percent as a fraction

41 3/4 percent means 
41.75/100 = 
4175/1000=
(167*25)/(400*25)=
167/400 

61 1/4 percent means 
6125/1000=
(49*125)/(80*125)=
49/80

A sampling grew 5 1/2 inches one year 6 3/4 inches the second year,and 7 1/4 inches the third year.how much did it grow during the three years

Essentially we are adding these three mixed numbers: 

5 1/2 + 6 3/4 + 7 1/4 

the common denominator is 4, so we convert: 

5 2/4 + 6 3/4 + 7 1/4 = 
5+6+7 + 2/4+3/4+1/4 = 
18 6/4= 
18 + 4/4 +2/4= 
19 2/4= 
19 1/2

A 180-pound man went on a diet and lost 8 3/4 pounds the first month and 7 1/2 pounds the second month what was his weight after months? (Hint: Add the two losses and then .subtract from starting)

180 - 8 3/4 - 7 1/2 = 
180-8-7-3/4 -2/4 = 
165 - 5/4=
165 - 1 1/4= 
163 3/4

add: 4 1/2+ 3 1/3 +2 7/8

we use the lcd 24 to write

4 12/24 + 3 8/24 + 2 21/24

then we add...
9 41/24

then we change improper fraction(s) to proper...
10 17/24

Raquel's younger sister is 3 5/6 feet tall. Raquel's brother is 4 1/6 feet tall. How much taller is Raquel's brother than her sister?

We must subtract 3 5/6 from 4 1/6 so we write:


4 1/6 - 3 5/6.

By subtracting only the whole number parts we get 4ft - 3ft which leaves us with

1 1/6  -  5/6


Now we convert 1 1/6 as follows...

1 1/6 = 1+1/6 = 6/6 +1/6 = 7/6


Now we can subtract:


7/6 - 5/6 = 2/6 = 1/3
