Question

Suzy spent 6 7/8 days working on her English paper, 3 1/6 days doing her science project, and 1 1/2 days studying for her math test. How many days more did Suzy spend on her English paper and math test than on her science project?

Answer 1

First you have to find common denominators for all the Fractions. (witch should be 24 for the denominators) Then add 6 21/24 + 1 12/24 = 8 9/24, Then take 8 9/24 - 3 4/24 and you should get the answer 5 5/24
