Question

Su Ling started an art project with 1 yard felt. She used 5/6 yard. How much felt does Su Ling have left?

Answer 1

Answer:

1/6 yard of felt

Step-by-step explanation:

Su Ling started with one yard, and she used 5/6 of it, which means five-sixths of the yard of felt get taken away. Now you have the last sixth of the yard left over - 1/6 of a yard of felt. One equals six sixths, so here's the math -

1yd = 6/6 yd

6/6 yd - 5/6 yd = 1/6 yd
