Question

If Brenda ate 1/2 pints of mint chocolate chip ice cream. Mark ate 3/4 pints of malt ice cream how many times more ice cream did mark eat

Answer 1

1/4 more................................................

Answer 2

Answer:

Mark eat 1/4 more than Brenda

Step-by-step explanation:

Brenda ate 1/2 pints of mint chocolate chip ice cream

Mark ate 3/4 pints of malt ice cream

To find how many more ice cream mark eat, subtract the 1/2 pints from 3/4 pints

$\frac{3}{4}- \frac{1}{2}$

To subtract fractions, the denominators should be same

LCD of 4 and 2 is 4

$\frac{3}{4}- \frac{2}{4}$

$\frac{3-2}{4}$

$\frac{1}{4}$

So Mark eat 1/4 more than Brenda
