Subtract: 7 9 16 - 4 2 4 a) 3 7 12 b) 3 1 16 c) 3 7 20 eliminate d) 3 11 12

B) 3 1/16

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation is

7 9/16 - 4 2/4

=> 121/16 - 18/4

=> 121/16 - (18*4)/4*4

=> 121/16 - 72/16

=> (121-72)/16

=> 49/16

=> 3 1/16

For this case we must subtract the following mixed numbers:

So:

We subtract:

We convert to a mixed number, we have:

Option B

the difference between a number and 5 is -2.
