Answer:

2 animals

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of animals=40

Fraction of fish=3/4

=>number of fish=3/4*40=30

Fraction of cats=1/5

=>number of cats=1/5*40=8

Animals which are not cats or fish are=total number of animals-(number of cats + number of fish)

Animals which are not cats or fish=40-(8+30)

40-38

Jim is running on a trail that is 5/4 of a mile long. So far he has run 2/3 of the trail. How many miles has he run so far?
Advocard [28]
You have to subtract 5/4 by 2/3 but in order to do that you must find a common denominator or least common multiple so the least common denominator of 4 and 3 is 12 so you have to multiply 4 by 3 and three by 4 to make both denominators 12 but you have to do the same thing on the top as you did the bottom so: 5/4*3= 15/12 and 2/3*4=8/12 Then 15/12-8/12 is 7/12 so Jim has to run 7/12 more
