Question

Henry are 3/4 of a sandwich. Keith are 4/8 of the same sandwich. How much more of the sandwich did Keith eat than henry

Answer 1

1/8 or 1/4, because if you think of fraction strips 4/8 equals 1/2, and 3/4 is more than 1/2.

Answer 2

Lets make common denominators! You will need to turn 3/4 into a fraction that's over 8. You will get 6/8. Now, you can subtract 6/8 - 4/8 and you will get 2/8, but you should simplify, or reduce it. So, your final answer is 1/4! I hope this helped! Make sure to show your work!
