Question

$$\frac{15}{4}-7-\frac{3}{4}=9$$

Verify

$\text{false}$

Solution Steps

Convert $7$ to fraction $\frac{28}{4}$.

$$\frac{15}{4}-\frac{28}{4}-\frac{3}{4}=9$$

Since $\frac{15}{4}$ and $\frac{28}{4}$ have the same denominator, subtract them by subtracting their numerators.

$$\frac{15-28}{4}-\frac{3}{4}=9$$

Subtract $28$ from $15$ to get $-13$.

$$-\frac{13}{4}-\frac{3}{4}=9$$

Since $-\frac{13}{4}$ and $\frac{3}{4}$ have the same denominator, subtract them by subtracting their numerators.

$$\frac{-13-3}{4}=9$$

Subtract $3$ from $-13$ to get $-16$.

$$\frac{-16}{4}=9$$

Divide $-16$ by $4$ to get $-4$.

$$-4=9$$

Compare $-4$ and $9$.

$$\text{false}$$
