Question

Mr. Greg had 8 sandwiches. He gave 1/4 to Nehamiah, 1/4 to Elijah, and 1/4 to Elizabeth. How many sandwiches did Mr. Greg have left?

Answer 1

Mr Greg, the teacher had 6 sandwiches left

Answer 2

There are many ways to work this out. One way could be:

Add up:
1/4 + 1/4 + 1/4 = 3/4

Find 3/4 of 8 so;
8 / 4 = 2
2 x 3 = 6

Find what's remaining:
8 - 6 = 2

So Mr.Greg has sandwiches left.
Hope it helped :)
