of the cake, and her friends ate 23
of the cake. How much of the cake was left?(1 point)
To find out how much of the cake was left, we need to subtract the fractions eaten by Aliyah's siblings and friends from the whole cake, which is represented by the fraction 1.
1 - 1/4 - 2/3 = (3/3) - (1/4) - (2/3)
To subtract these fractions, we need to find a common denominator.
The common denominator of 4 and 3 is 12.
(9/9) - (3/12) - (8/12) = 9/9 - 11/12 = (9/9) - (11/12) = (108/108) - (99/108)
By subtracting the numerators, we get:
9 - 11 = -2
So, there is -2/108 or -1/54 of the cake left.
Since it doesn't make sense to have a negative amount of cake left, we can conclude that the cake was completely eaten, and there is no cake left.
1 - 1/4 - 2/3 = (3/3) - (1/4) - (2/3)

The distance from the basement floor to the roof can be calculated by subtracting the elevation of the basement floor from the elevation of the roof.
37 - (-16) = 37 + 16 = 53
Therefore, the distance from the basement floor to the roof is 53 feet.
37 - (-16) = 37 + 16 = 53
Therefore, the distance from the basement floor to the roof is 53 feet.

To find the change in temperature, we need to subtract the initial temperature from the final temperature.
30°F - (-20°F) = 30°F + 20°F = 50°F
Therefore, the change in temperature between -20°F and 30°F is 50°F.
30°F - (-20°F) = 30°F + 20°F = 50°F
Therefore, the change in temperature between -20°F and 30°F is 50°F.

The new position of the submarine can be found by adding the change in position (ascend) to the current position.
650 feet - 200 feet = 450 feet
Therefore, the new position of the submarine is 450 feet below sea level.
The integer that represents its new position is -450.
650 feet - 200 feet = 450 feet
Therefore, the new position of the submarine is 450 feet below sea level.
The integer that represents its new position is -450.

Therefore, the distance between the elevations is 43 feet.
The correct response is 43 feet.
124 feet - 81 feet = 43 feet
Therefore, the distance between the elevations is 43 feet.
The correct response is 43 feet.

Therefore, -14.15 + (-3.78) - (-5.78) - 3.4 equals -12.55.
Simplifying the addition and subtraction, we get:

-12.55 isnt an answer
Apologies for the error. Let's reevaluate the expression:
-14.15 + (-3.78) - (-5.78) - 3.4
Simplifying the double negation:
-14.15 + (-3.78) + 5.78 - 3.4
Adding and subtracting the terms:
-14.15 + 5.78 - 3.78 - 3.4 = -11.37 - 7.18
Calculating the result:
-11.37 - 7.18 = -18.55
Therefore, -14.15 + (-3.78) - (-5.78) - 3.4 equals -18.55.
-14.15 + (-3.78) - (-5.78) - 3.4
Simplifying the double negation:
-14.15 + (-3.78) + 5.78 - 3.4
Adding and subtracting the terms:
-14.15 + 5.78 - 3.78 - 3.4 = -11.37 - 7.18
Calculating the result:
-11.37 - 7.18 = -18.55
Therefore, -14.15 + (-3.78) - (-5.78) - 3.4 equals -18.55.

Calculating the result:
-8.37 - 7.18 = -15.55
Therefore, -14.15 + (-3.78) - (-5.78) - 3.4 equals -15.55.
-14.15 + (-3.78) - (-5.78) - 3.4

To solve this expression, we need to follow the order of operations (PEMDAS). First, we evaluate the parentheses, then perform the multiplication and division from left to right, and finally, perform the subtraction.
48 ÷ ((2 + 6) × 2) - 1 = 48 ÷ (8 × 2) - 1
Next, we perform the multiplication:
48 ÷ (16) - 1
Then, we perform the division:
3 - 1
Finally, we perform the subtraction:
3 - 1 = 2
Therefore, 48 ÷ ((2 + 6) × 2) - 1 equals 2.
48 ÷ ((2 + 6) × 2) - 1 = 48 ÷ (8 × 2) - 1
Next, we perform the multiplication:
48 ÷ (16) - 1
Then, we perform the division:
3 - 1
Finally, we perform the subtraction:
3 - 1 = 2
Therefore, 48 ÷ ((2 + 6) × 2) - 1 equals 2.
