Question 123315: evaluate these word problem
x-y-z
x=9
y=2 1/2
z=3 3/4

Answer by chitra(359)   (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
The given expression is:

x - y - z where x = 9, y = 2 1/2 and z = 3 3/4

this can be written as: x = 9, y = 5/2 and z = 15/4

So plugging all these values in the given expression we get:

= (36 - 10 - 15)/4 [taking LCM, we get]

We get: (36 - 25)/4

= 11/4

this can be written as: 2 in the form of a mixed fraction.
