Josue Barnett · Answer 1

8/9 - 3/8 = 37/72

Step-by-step explanation:

8/9 - 3/8 = 8 x 8/9 x 8 - 3 x 9/8 x 9 = 64/72 - 27/72 = 64 - 27/72 = 37/72

Emely Walsh · Answer 2

Answer: 37/72

Step-by-step explanation:

Write all numerators above the least common denominator.

(9*3 = 27 and then do 8*8=64) Calculate. (27-64 = - 37) Rewrite the fraction. (-37/72) And you have 37/72. (You get the 72 by multiplying 8 and 9)
