To subtract \( 2 \frac{3}{8} - 1 \frac{2}{8} \), let's follow these steps:

  1. Convert the mixed numbers to improper fractions if necessary:

    • \( 2 \frac{3}{8} = \frac{16}{8} + \frac{3}{8} = \frac{19}{8} \)
    • \( 1 \frac{2}{8} = \frac{8}{8} + \frac{2}{8} = \frac{10}{8} \)
  2. Now subtract the improper fractions: \[ \frac{19}{8} - \frac{10}{8} = \frac{19 - 10}{8} = \frac{9}{8} \]

  3. Convert \( \frac{9}{8} \) back to a mixed number:

    • \( \frac{9}{8} = 1 \frac{1}{8} \)

Thus, the result of \( 2 \frac{3}{8} - 1 \frac{2}{8} \) is \( 1 \frac{1}{8} \).

So the correct response is: 1 1/8.

5910

To solve \( 7510 - 1610 \), we can perform the subtraction step by step:

  1. Start by subtracting the whole numbers: \[ 7510 - 1610 = 5900 \]

  2. So you have: \[ 5900 = 5910 - 10 \] which doesn't apply here since we are subtracting directly: we just need to focus on the whole number subtraction:

    • \( 5910 \) represents \( 5900 \) with \( 10 \) represented in tenths.
    • Therefore, the numerical value calculated is going to be \( 5900 = 5900\) rather than attempting to revert it into mixed fractions.

So, if you look at the choices you provided, the one that matches \( 5900 \) is:

5910.

To solve \( 7 \frac{5}{10} - 1 \frac{6}{10} \), we follow these steps:

  1. Convert the mixed numbers to improper fractions if necessary:

    • \( 7 \frac{5}{10} = \frac{75}{10} \) (since \( 7 \times 10 + 5 = 75 \))
    • \( 1 \frac{6}{10} = \frac{16}{10} \) (since \( 1 \times 10 + 6 = 16 \))
  2. Now subtract the improper fractions: \[ \frac{75}{10} - \frac{16}{10} = \frac{75 - 16}{10} = \frac{59}{10} \]

  3. Convert \( \frac{59}{10} \) back to a mixed number:

    • \( \frac{59}{10} = 5 \frac{9}{10} \)

Thus, the result of \( 7 \frac{5}{10} - 1 \frac{6}{10} \) is \( 5 \frac{9}{10} \).

So the correct response is: 5 9/10.

To solve \( 3 \frac{2}{4} + 3 \frac{3}{4} \), we can follow these steps:

  1. Convert the mixed numbers to improper fractions:

    • \( 3 \frac{2}{4} = \frac{3 \times 4 + 2}{4} = \frac{12 + 2}{4} = \frac{14}{4} \)
    • \( 3 \frac{3}{4} = \frac{3 \times 4 + 3}{4} = \frac{12 + 3}{4} = \frac{15}{4} \)
  2. Now add the improper fractions: \[ \frac{14}{4} + \frac{15}{4} = \frac{14 + 15}{4} = \frac{29}{4} \]

  3. Convert \( \frac{29}{4} \) back to a mixed number:

    • \( \frac{29}{4} = 7 \frac{1}{4} \) (since \( 4 \) goes into \( 29 \) a total of \( 7 \) times with a remainder of \( 1 \))

Thus, the result of \( 3 \frac{2}{4} + 3 \frac{3}{4} \) is \( 7 \frac{1}{4} \).

So the correct response is: 7 1/4.

To add \( 6 \frac{1}{3} + 7 \frac{1}{2} \), we can follow these steps:

  1. Convert the mixed numbers to improper fractions:

    • For \( 6 \frac{1}{3} \): \[ 6 \frac{1}{3} = \frac{6 \times 3 + 1}{3} = \frac{18 + 1}{3} = \frac{19}{3} \]
    • For \( 7 \frac{1}{2} \): \[ 7 \frac{1}{2} = \frac{7 \times 2 + 1}{2} = \frac{14 + 1}{2} = \frac{15}{2} \]
  2. Find a common denominator:

    • The least common multiple of \( 3 \) and \( 2 \) is \( 6 \).
  3. Convert the fractions to have a common denominator:

    • \( \frac{19}{3} = \frac{19 \times 2}{3 \times 2} = \frac{38}{6} \)
    • \( \frac{15}{2} = \frac{15 \times 3}{2 \times 3} = \frac{45}{6} \)
  4. Add the fractions: \[ \frac{38}{6} + \frac{45}{6} = \frac{38 + 45}{6} = \frac{83}{6} \]

  5. Convert \( \frac{83}{6} \) back to a mixed number:

    • \( 83 \div 6 = 13 \) with a remainder of \( 5 \).
    • Thus, \( \frac{83}{6} = 13 \frac{5}{6} \).

The final result is: 13 5/6 (which corresponds to the first option "1356").

To find the difference between \( 312 \) and \( 123 \), simply perform the subtraction:

\[ 312 - 123 \]

  1. Perform the subtraction:
    • Starting from the rightmost column:
      • \( 2 - 3 \) cannot be done, so we borrow \( 1 \) from the \( 1 \) in the tens column. It becomes \( 0 \), and \( 2 \) becomes \( 12 \).
      • Now, \( 12 - 3 = 9 \).
    • In the tens column, we have \( 0 - 2 \), which cannot be done, so we borrow \( 1 \) from the hundreds column. The \( 3 \) becomes \( 2 \), and \( 0 \) becomes \( 10 \).
      • Now, \( 10 - 2 = 8 \).
    • In the hundreds column, we have \( 2 - 1 = 1 \).

Putting everything together, the result is:

\[ 312 - 123 = 189 \]

Looking at your provided responses, none of the listed options match the calculated difference of \( 189 \). Could there be a typo or mistake in the provided problem or responses? If you clarify, I'd be happy to help!
