Question

if you have $15 and you spend $4 on a sandwich, drink, and chips, what fraction of your money did you spend?

Answer 1

You spent 4/15 of your money

Answer 2

Answer:  The required fraction is $\dfrac{4}{15}.$

Step-by-step explanation:  Given that we have $15 and we spend $4 on a sandwich, drink, and chips.

We are to find the fraction of the money that we spent.

According to the given information, we have

Total amount of money = $15

and

the amount of money that we spent = $4.

Therefore, the fraction of money that we spent is given by

$f=\dfrac{4}{15}.$

Thus, the required fraction is $\dfrac{4}{15}.$
