Answer:

12 days.

Step-by-step explanation:

I looked at it this way:

He has to take 4/28 pills the first day, so it's 28-4=24. Then I divided 24 by 2.

In simpler terms:

28-4=24

24/2

12

Fraction is a part of a whole, for example 1/2. Equivalent fractions are fractions that look different but show the same amount. Improper fractions have numerators that are higher than the denominator, while mixed fractions contain whole numbers and fractions.

How do we find 3/5 of 20?

Method 1 is to find 1/5 of 20, then multiply by 3.

1/5 of 20 is 20 ÷ 5 = 4.

3 : 1, or 3 to 1, thus 3 times as many.
