Question

Amy is making a cake that calls for a 5/6 cup of crushed graham crackers. If she had already crushed 1/2 cup, how much more does she need?

Answer 1

Convert 1/2 into 3/6:

$\frac{1}{2}=\frac{3}{6}$

Subtract both terms:

$\frac{5}{6}-\frac{3}{6}=\frac{2}{6}$

Simpifly the terms:

$\frac{2}{6}=\frac{1}{3}$

Final Result: 1/3
