<span>−1/3b=9
Divide -1/3 on both sides
b= 9 divided by -1/3
Convert the 9 into an improper fraction
b= 9/1 divided by -1/3
Convert the division sign to multiplication while flipping the fraction -1/3 to -3/1
b= 9/1*-3/1

Ms. Potts washed 1/4 of her laundry. Her son washed 3/7 of it. Who washed most of the laundry? How much of the laundry still nee

LenaWriter [7]

Answer:

Son washed more
Remaining 9/28 of the laundry

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Make denominators common to see the difference in fractions:</u>

1/4 = 7/28
3/7 = 12/28

Son washed more laundry as 12/28 > 7/28

<u>Together they washed:</u>

7/28 + 12/28 = 19/28 of the laundry

<u>Remaining part is:</u>

1 - 19/28 =
28/28 - 19/28 =
9/28 of the laundry
