Answer:

C) 11/24

Step-by-step explanation:

rewrite each fraction as equivalent fraction with common denominator.

LCM(6,8) is 24

5/6 = 20/24

3/8 = 9/24

The difference between 20/24 and 9/24 is 11/24

Answer:

C 11/24 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

5/6ft, and 3/8ft LCM (Least common multiple) would be 24 so what you do to the dominator u do to the numerator so 5/6ft × 4 = 20/24ft

and 3/8ft × 3 = 9/24ft

Final step: 20/24ft - 9/24ft = 11/24ft
