Hi!

Your answer is 5/9.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can't subtract two fractions with different denominators. So you need to get a common denominator. To do this, you'll multiply the denominators times each other... but the numerators have to change, too. They get multiplied by the other term's denominator.

So we multiply 8 by 3, and get 24.

Then we multiply 1 by 9, and get 9.

Next we give both terms new denominators -- 9 × 3 = 27.

So now our fractions look like this:

24/27 - 9/27

Since our denominators match, we can subtract the numerators.

24 − 9 = 15

So the answer is:

15/27

(After you simplify it, it will be 5/9.)

Hope this helps!

7 ft 6 in means 7 1/2, because 6 in is 1/2 of a foot. 7 ft 8 in means 7 2/3 because 8 in is 2/3 of a foot. 23/3 = 7 2/3. 15/2 = 7 1/2.

23/3   *   15/2   = 57 1/2
