\n" ); document.write( "
\r\n" );
document.write( "Then we do (the sum of 1/2 and 1/4) = 1/2 + 1/4 = 2/4 + 1/4 = 3/4.\r\n" );

\r\n" );
document.write( "Then we do (the product of 1/2 and 1/4) = (1/2)(1/4) = 1/8.\r\n" );

\n" ); document.write( "what is [the difference between 3/4 and 1/8]?
\n" ); document.write( "
\r\n" );
document.write( "Su we just subtract 3/4 - 1/8 = 6/8 - 1/8 = 5/8.\r\n" );
