  1. 2 1/4 - 3/7 = 9/4 - 3/7 = 63/28 - 12/28 = 51/28 = 1 23/28


  2. 2 1/4 - 3/7 = x

    2 7/28 - 12/28 = x

    1 35/28 - 12/28 = x

    1 23/28 = x

  3. 1 27/28

    give me a good rating i answered it for you

  4. 2 1/4 - 3/7 =

    (2*4+1)/4 - 3/7 =

    9/4 - 3/7 =

    (9*7)/(4*7) - (3*4)/(7*4) =

    63/28 - 12/28 =

    51/28 = 1 23/28

  5. 2 1/4 minus 3/7 Express the fractions in terms of their least common denominator

    LCD 9/4, 3/7 = 28. Now convert the fractions

    63/28 - 12/28 = 51/28




  6. ok, so follow these steps:

    1) 2 1/4 = 9/4

    multiply 2 and 4. then add 1. keep the 4 as its denominator.

    2) 9/4 + 3/7 = 63/28 - 12/28

    find a lowest common denominator (the number 28) that they can both go into.

    3) 63/28 - 12/28 = 51/28

    subtract.

    4) 51/28 = 1 23/28

    since there isn't any numbers that can go into both 51 and 28, divide 28 and 51. your answer should be 1 23/28.

    I hoped this was clear!

    good luck.

    :)

  7. 9/4 - 3/7 = 63/28 - 12/28 = 51/28 = 1 23/28.
