The correct Answer is:
To solve the expression \( 10 - 6 \frac{3}{8} \), we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Convert the mixed fraction to an improper fraction The mixed fraction \( 6 \frac{3}{8} \) can be converted to an improper fraction. To do this, we multiply the whole number (6) by the denominator (8) and then add the numerator (3). \[ 6 \frac{3}{8} = \frac{(6 \times 8) + 3}{8} = \frac{48 + 3}{8} = \frac{51}{8} \] ### Step 2: Rewrite the expression Now we can rewrite the original expression using the improper fraction we just calculated: \[ 10 - 6 \frac{3}{8} = 10 - \frac{51}{8} \] ### Step 3: Convert the whole number to a fraction Next, we need to express 10 as a fraction with a denominator of 8. We can do this by writing 10 as \( \frac{10 \times 8}{8} = \frac{80}{8} \). ### Step 4: Subtract the fractions Now we can subtract the two fractions: \[ \frac{80}{8} - \frac{51}{8} = \frac{80 - 51}{8} = \frac{29}{8} \] ### Step 5: Final answer Thus, the final answer is: \[ \frac{29}{8} \] ---
