Your answer is ..
First,
we have to turn our mixed fractions into an improper fraction.
=4 1/8 which is 33/8(4 x 8 + 1).

Our next mixed fraction,
we have 1 1/7 which is 8/7(1 x 7 + 1).

Now, we have the get the same denominator in order to subtract.
SO, both 8 and 7 goes in to 56. So we multiply both mixed fractions to get the same denominator.
(Tip: what ever you do to do numerator, you do to the denominator; and the other way around).
33/8 : 33*7=231 and our denominator, 8*7=56
So our improper fraction now,
231/56

Our next fraction 8/7,
7*8= 56 and our numerator 8*8=64.
=64/56

So, now we subtract.
231-64= 167 and our common denominator. 167/56

Now we divide 167 by 56 which is 2 and remainder is 55.
So, you should end up with a mixed fraction, 2 55/56.

Sarah bought 3 1/2 pints of blueberries to make jelly. She ate 3/4 of a pint of berries on her way home. How many pints of berri
AnnyKZ [126]

Answer:

11/4 or 2.75 pints

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to find the difference between the original amount of blueberries and the amount she ate

original amount-amount ate

3 1/2 -3/4

To subtract, we need common denominators

The common denominator of 2 and 4 is 4

3 1/2=7/2

Multiply by 2/2 to get a common denominator of 4

7/2*2/2=14/4

Now, we have common denominators and can subtract

14/4-3/4

Subtract the numerators, and leave the denominators as 4

11/4 =2.75

She has 11/4 or 2.75 pints left
