Find the difference. 6 - 3 1/4 = ?
WHAT IS THE ANSWER I NEED IT NOW OR I WILL FAIL
To find the difference between 6 and 3 1/4, we need to subtract 3 1/4 from 6.
Step 1: Convert the mixed number 3 1/4 to an improper fraction.
To do this, multiply the whole number (3) by the denominator of the fraction (4), and then add the numerator (1). This gives us (3 * 4) + 1 = 13.
So, 3 1/4 is equivalent to 13/4.
Step 2: Subtract 13/4 from 6.
To subtract fractions, we need a common denominator. In this case, the common denominator is 4.
6 can be written as 24/4. To get the same denominator of 4, we multiply both the numerator and denominator of 6 by 4, which gives us (6 * 4) / (1 * 4) = 24/4.
Now, we can subtract 13/4 from 24/4:
24/4 - 13/4 = (24 - 13) / 4 = 11/4.
So, the difference between 6 and 3 1/4 is 11/4.
It looks like you're homework dumping and trying to cheat.
