Liza bought 5/8 pound of trail mix. She gives 2/8 pound of trail mix to michael. How much trail mix does liza have left?

1 answer:

8 0

Liza has 3/8 pounds of trail mix left. I just subtracted 5/8-2/8 since they have common denominators you keep the denominator the same and just subtract the numerators, so 5/8-2/8= 3/8 pounds.

equation
PEMDAS

<h3>let's solve:</h3>

$\sf cancel \: 4 \: from \: both \: sides : \\ \sf \implies \: 3x + 4 - 4 = 22 - 4 \\ \implies \sf \: 3x = 18$
$\sf divide \: both \: sides \: by \: 3 : \\ \sf \bcancel \frac{3x}{3} = \frac{ \cancel{18} \: \: ^{6} }{ \cancel{ \: 3}} \\ \therefore \rm \: x = 6$
