Question

$$\frac{ 51 }{ 8 } - \frac{ 11 }{ 8 }$$

Evaluate

$5$

Solution Steps

Since $\frac{51}{8}$ and $\frac{11}{8}$ have the same denominator, subtract them by subtracting their numerators.

$$\frac{51-11}{8}$$

Subtract $11$ from $51$ to get $40$.

$$\frac{40}{8}$$

Divide $40$ by $8$ to get $5$.

$$5$$

Factor

$5$
