Q. Which sign makes the statement true?\newline68−28\frac{6}{8} - \frac{2}{8} ?\text{?} 18+38\frac{1}{8} + \frac{3}{8}\newlineChoices:\newline(A) >>\newline(B) <<\newline(C) ==
  1. Simplify Left Side: Simplify the left side of the equation: 68−28\frac{6}{8} - \frac{2}{8}.\newlineCalculation: 68−28=48\frac{6}{8} - \frac{2}{8} = \frac{4}{8}, which simplifies to 12\frac{1}{2}.
  2. Simplify Right Side: Simplify the right side of the equation: 18+38\frac{1}{8} + \frac{3}{8}.\newlineCalculation: 18+38=48\frac{1}{8} + \frac{3}{8} = \frac{4}{8}, which simplifies to 12\frac{1}{2}.
  3. Compare Results: Compare the simplified results of both sides.\newlineCalculation: 12?12\frac{1}{2} ? \frac{1}{2}.\newlineSince both sides are equal, the correct sign is ＂==＂.
