Question

linda made 3 gallons of punch with orange juice, apple juice, and ginger ale. She used 5/6 gallon of orange juice and 2/3 gallon of apple juice. How much ginger ale did Linda use to make 3 gallons of punch?

Answer 1

That would be 3/5 to be correct

Answer 2

Answer: 1 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

You have 3 wholes-

5/6 of a gallon for orange juice leaves 1/6 remaining.

2/3 of a gallon for apple juice leaving 1/3 remaining

1 gallon has not been used.

1/3 = 2/6

Add the remaining parts

1/6 + 2/6 = 3/6

Add your 1 whole

1 3/6 simplest form 1 1/2
