Answer:
the answer is 3/8
Step-by-step explanation:
multiply 7 by 2, and get 14
multiply 1 by 8, and get 8
give both terms new denominators which will be 16
The new fraction will be [tex]\frac{14}{16} - \frac{8}{16}[/tex]
Now you can subtract the numerators which will give you 6/16
Now you would simplify the fraction
Divide the fraction by 2 and you get 3/8 which is your answer
Hope this helps:)
