Explain why it is necessary to rename 4 1/4 if you subtract 3/4 from it

1 answer:

8 0

You would rename four and one fourth when subtracted from three fourths because when you subtract the fractions you get a different fraction for your answer.
$4 \frac{1}{4}- \frac{3}{4}= 3 \frac{1}{2}$
so you would said three and one half instead of four and one fourth.

Joaquín compró una docena y media de factura la docena son parte de grasa dos tercios tiene dulce de leche y el resto son medial

Juli2301 [7.4K]

Answer:

2 facturas de grasa.

12 facturas con dulce de leche

4 medialunas

Step-by-step explanation:

Una docena contiene 12 facturas y media docena contiene 6 facturas. Entonces Joaquin compro un total de 18 facturas (12+6). Si la novena parte (1/9) de las facturas son de grasa entonces solo multiplicamos esta fraccion por la totalidad de las facturas.

18 * (1/9) = 2 facturas de grasa.

La cantidad de facturas que tienen dulce de leche son dos tercios (2/3) de la totalidad. Entonces multiplicamos esta fracion for la totalidad.

18 * (2/3) = 12 facturas con dulce de leche

Por final, la cantidad de media lunas es el resto de las facturas, entonces descontamos las facturas de grasa y con dulce de leche de la totalidad para saber cuantas facturas son medialunas

18 - 2 - 12 = 4 medialunas
