An underwater robot takes pictures at an elevation of -8 5/12 m relative to sea level. What is the robot's elevation expressed as a decimal? Show your work. PLZ HELP I WOULD REALLY APPRECIATE IT

Step-by-step explanation:

i think it 8.45

To solve this question, all we have to do is  to convert - 8 5/12 to a decimal.

So we have: -8 5/12 = -8. (5/12)

This is equal to -8.41666... , where the 6 continues forever. You can express this by drawing a line above the 6, which indicates that it continues forever.

Let me know if this helps!
