5. There are three different colored M&Ms
1 answer:
The total number of red m&m out of all m&m is 2/5.
The total number of green m&m out of all m&m is 1/4.
if we add up 2/5 and 1/4, we can use that information to subtract from the total number of m&m to find the rest of m&m, which would be a total number of white m&m!
2/5 + 1/4 = ?
Common denominator. We will choose 20, since it is the lowest common multiple! (this means that 20/20 is the total number of all m&m, by the way. )
+
= 8/20 + 5/20 = a
20/20 - a = ?
