Answer:

A simple way to mentally subtract is to simplify the numbers, subtract, then subtract or add for the simplified answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

A simple way to mentally subtract is to simplify the numbers, subtract, then subtract or add for the simplified answer. For this 304 - 81 is easier as 300 - 80. Make note that we took away 4 from 304 and 1 from 81. Now we just subtract mentally, and 300 - 80 = 220. If we took 4 from 304, this means that our answer should be 4 less, since 4 less would be 304 - 80 = 216. If we took 1 from 81, then we add 1 back to get the equation 304 - 81 = 217.

304 - 81 = ?

300 - 80 = 220

304 - 80 = 216

304 - 81 = 217

Answer:

The required way is shown above.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided calculation.

304 – 81 is very close to 304 – 100,

Now subtract 100 from 304 mentally, it will gives us 204

Now add 19 as we round 81 to 100.

204 + 19 = 223

So, the answer is 223.

Now write a coherent sequence of equations that correspond to your reasoning.

304 – 81  =  304 – (100 – 19)

                = (304 – 100) + 19  

                =  204 + 19  =  223

Hence, the required way is shown above.

Jules ran 2/3 miles. Miles ran 5/8 more than Jules. How many miles did Miles run?
kifflom [539]
2/3 is equivalent to 16/24
and 5/8 is equivalent to 15/24 miles
15/24+16/24= 31/24

31/24 simplifies to 1 6/24
Which simplifies down to 1 1/6

Miles ran 1 and 1/6 miles
