Question

On his vacation, Chad spent 1/8 of the day swimming, 1/6 of the day shopping, and 1/4 of the day water skiing. How much of the day was left?

Answer 1

Answer:

11/24

Step-by-step explanation:

First find the common denominators of each fraction:

The common denominator of each fraction is 24

• 1/8 multiplied by 3 is 3/24
• 1/6 multiplied by 4 is 4/24

• 1/4 multiplied my 6 is 6/24

add these fractions up

3/24 + 4/24 + 6/24 = 13/24

subtract 24/24 - 13/24 = 11/24
