Question

Can you help me so I can help my brother! If the first day was 3/8 and the second day was 1 1/8 and the third day was 1 1/2. What will be the fifth day?

Answer 1

First day: 3/8

Second day: 1 1/8

Third day: 1 1/2

Fourth day: ?

Fifth day: ?

Find the difference:

3/8 ------ 8/8 -------- 1 1/8 = 6/8 = 3/4

3/4------ 4/4 ------- 1 2/4 = 3/4

The difference is 3/4.

Add 3/4 to the third day to find 4th and add 4th to find 5th.

4th day: 1 1/2 + 3/4

1 2/4 + 3/4

6/4 + 3/4 = 9/4 = 2 1/4

5th day: 2 1/4 + 3/4

9/4 + 3/4

12/4 = 3

//Hopefully it helps.
