Answer:

[tex]1 \frac{5}{14}[/tex], [tex]\frac{19}{14}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

How much longer did he study for his math test?

[tex]E=3\frac{6}{7}[/tex]

[tex]M=5\frac{3}{14}[/tex]

[tex]x=difference[/tex]

An equation for this would resemble this:

[tex]M- E=x[/tex]

Now before we get into any equation solving let's get the denominators equal to each other. we can do this by multiplying the numerator and denominator by 2.     [tex]\frac{6(2)}{7(2)}=\frac{12}{14}[/tex]

Now we can solve the equation:

[tex]5\frac{3}{14} - 3\frac{12}{14} =\frac{19}{14}[/tex]

[tex]1 \frac{5}{14}[/tex], as a mixed number

plz mark me brainliest. :0
