Question

What is three fourths minus four

Answer 1

It is equal to -3.25 or -13/4

Answer 2

Answer:

$\frac{3}{4}-4$   $=-3.25$

Step-by-step explanation:

Three fourth of some value is $\frac{3}{4}$ of it

                           $\frac{3}{4}-4$

This can be solved by taking the L.C.M of it.

                     $\frac{(3*1)-(4*4)}{4}$

                       $\frac{3-16}{4}$

                       $\frac{-13}{4}$

                      $=-3.25$

Or This can be done by dividing $\frac{3}{4}$ and then subtracting 4 from it.

$\frac{3}{4} =0.75$

                     = $0.75-4$

                     $=-3.25$
