Answer:
The songs of rhythm and blues are 1/8
Step-by-step explanation:
Tape diagram is attached
Data
5/8 hip-hop
1/3 of the remaining are rhythm and blue
The remaining is 1- 5/8=
First, find the Least Common Denominator and rewrite the fractions with the common denominator.
LCD = 8
Equivalent Fractions with the LCD
1/1 = 8/8
5/8 = 5/8
Multiply both the numerator and denominator of each fraction by the number that makes its denominator equal the LCD. This is basically multiplying each fraction by 1.
(1/1×8/8)−(5/8×1/1)=?
Complete the multiplication and the equation becomes
8/8−5/8=?
The two fractions now have like denominators so you can subtract the numerators.
Then:
(8−5)/8=3/8
This fraction cannot be reduced.
Remaining =3/8
To get rhythm and blues we have to multiply 1/3 by 3/8
1/3 x 3/8
For fraction multiplication, multiply the numerators and then multiply the denominators to get
1×3/3×8=3/24
This fraction can be reduced by dividing both the numerator and denominator by the Greatest Common Factor of 3 and 24
3/24= 1/8
The songs of rhythm and blues are 1/8
