Need help with two college algebra math problems.?

Question

I forgot how to do this kind of problems, please help me answer them.

1) (8/9 +3) + (-5/9)

2) 1/3-(-1/4) / 7/8-3/16

Answer 1

Do the problem in order of operation.

And if you are in college, but don't know

how to add/subtract and simplify fractions

then that's not good. =\

Anyway, here's order of operation;

--------------------------------------...

PEMDAS

Parenthesis (Please)

Exponents (Excuse)

Multiplication (My)

Division (Dear)

Addition (Aunt)

Subtraction (Sally)

Answer 2

(8/9) + (27/9) = (35/9) - (5/9) = 30/9 = 10/3

((4/12) + (3/12)) / ((14/16) - (3/16)) = (7/12) / (11/16) = 28/33
