Hello! I would love to help!

Okay, let's first figure out what the problem is asking us. Basically, we need to subtract 4/6 from 5/6 to find the extra left over.

Let's do it!

We need to do 5/6-4/6

To do this, subtract the numerators, or top numbers of each fraction.

The top numbers are 5 and 4
5-4=1

Now, put the new numerator over 6, the common denominator.

1/6

So, your answer is 1/6 cup extra oil.

Hope this helped! Comment if you have questions!

Pie
The total distance traveled by cycle = 50 * 12 = 600 inch
1 complete rotation measures = 2 * 3.14 * 24 = 150.72 inch

Total rotation = 600 / 150.72
= approx. 4

In short, Your Answer would be Option C

mr. and mrs. Dorsey and three children are flying a Springfield. the cost of each is $179. estimate how much the tickets will co
irina1246 [14]
What they want you to do is make a rough guess (in your head) about what the total cost might be.
You can break it down into smaller numbers to make this easier!

Since you don’t have to be accurate (because it is an ‘estimate’, meaning it’s not exact), let’s round the price to $180. Now, let’s separate $180 into two different parts — $100 and $80. Since there are three people, you can multiply both of those parts by 3; 100x3=300, and 80x3=240. Now, add those two numbers together.
300+240=540. $540 can be your estimate for the total price!

Now, since they want you to find the exact answer afterwards, we’re going to go back in and find the exact answer. I’m not sure if you’re too familiar with multiplication yet, so let’s do it using addition!
179+179=358.
Then, add another 179...
358+179=$537.

So, the exact cost would be $537!
Does that make sense? Your estimate was *close*, but not exact because we rounded 179 up to 180 to make it a little easier. Estimates can be really useful if you have to do math on the fly, and once you go back to get the real exact answer, you’ll know you’re right if they are quite close!

Elisa ran a total of 8 4/5 miles on Saturday and Sunday. If she ran 5 1/4 miles on Saturday, how many miles did she run on Sunda
stepladder [879]

Answer: 3\dfrac{11}{20}\ \text{miles}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Elisa run a total of 8\frac{4}{5} miles on Saturday and Sunday.

If she runs 5\frac{1}{4} miles on Saturday

Then, distance traveled on Sunday is given by

\Rightarrow 8\dfrac{4}{5}-5\dfrac{1}{4}\\\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{44}{5}-\dfrac{21}{4}\\\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{44\times 4}{5\times 4}-\dfrac{21\times 5}{4\times 5}\\\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{71}{20}\\\\\Rightarrow 3\dfrac{11}{20}\ \text{miles}
