Question:

A store sold $6\frac{1}{5}$ cases of juice on Friday $4\frac{4}{5}$ cases of juice on Saturday. How many more cases of juice did the store sell on Friday than on Saturday?

Answer:

$1\frac{2}{5}$ cases of juice sold on Friday than on Saturday.

Solution:

Let us first change mixed fraction into improper fraction.

Number of cases sold on Friday = $6\frac{1}{5}=\frac{31}{5}$

Number of cases sold on Saturday = $4\frac{4}{5}=\frac{24}{5}$

Difference between cases sold on Friday and on Saturday

                                                     $=\frac{31}{5}-\frac{24}{5}$

                                                     $=\frac{31-24}{5}$

                                                     $=\frac{7}{5}$

                                                    $=1\frac{2}{5}$

Hence $1\frac{2}{5}$ cases of juice sold on Friday than on Saturday.
