Question

Isaiah brought two dozen donuts to a class party. Half of the donuts had vanilla frosting with sprinkles, 2 had strawberry frosting with cream filling, and the rest had chocolate frosting with sprinkles. What fraction of the donuts had sprinkles? There are 12 donuts in a dozen.

Answer 1

2 x 12 = 24 total donuts

only 2 donuts didn't have sprinkles

 so 22/24 had sprinkles

22/24 can be reduced to 11/12 had sprinkles

Answer 2

22 donuts had sprinkles.
So 22/24 simplifed to 11/12.
