The previous helper was correct.
Another way to do this (which I think is faster) would be to convert both 3 1/3 and 1 2/3 into improper fractions: 10/3 and 5/3.

Then find (10/3) - (5/3).

A triangular course for a canoe race is marked with buoys. The first leg is 3/10 mi, the second leg is 1/2 mi, and the third leg

balu736 [363]

<h2>The race is 1.2 miles long</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The first leg is 3/10 mi, the second leg is 1/2 mi, and the third leg is 2/5 mi.

$\texttt{Length of first leg = }\frac{3}{10}miles\\\\\texttt{Length of second leg = }\frac{1}{2}miles\\\\\texttt{Length of third leg = }\frac{2}{5}miles$

Now we need to find length of race

$\texttt{Total length = }\frac{3}{10}+\frac{1}{2}+\frac{2}{5}\\\\\texttt{Total length = }\frac{3}{10}+\frac{5}{10}+\frac{4}{10}\\\\\texttt{Total length = }\frac{3+5+4}{10}\\\\\texttt{Total length = }\frac{12}{10}\\\\\texttt{Total length = }1.2miles$

The race is 1.2 miles long

a. Jenny will have to pay $600

b. Jenny’s parents will contribute $360 to her new laptop.
