Answer:

$2 \frac{9}{28}$ gallons of ice tea is left with Morris

Step-by-step explanation:

Morris has 2 3/4 gallons of ice tea. He gives 3/7 of it to her friend.

Morris has 2 3/4 gallons of ice tea

$2\frac{3}{4}= \frac{2*4+3}{4}=\frac{11}{4}$

He gives 3/7 of it to her friend.

To find how many gallons of ice tea does Morris have left , we subtract 3/7 from 11/4

$\frac{11}{4}- \frac{3}{7}$

Make the denominators same

$\frac{11*7}{4*7}- \frac{3*4}{7*4}$

$\frac{77}{28}- \frac{12}{28}$

$\frac{65}{28}$

$\frac{65}{28} = 2 \frac{9}{28}$
