Morris has 2 3/4 gallons of ice tea. He gives 3/7 of it to her friend. How many gallons of ice tea does Morris have left?

lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

$2 \frac{9}{28}$ gallons of ice tea is left with Morris

Step-by-step explanation:

Morris has 2 3/4 gallons of ice tea. He gives 3/7 of it to her friend.

Morris has 2 3/4 gallons of ice tea

$2\frac{3}{4}= \frac{2*4+3}{4}=\frac{11}{4}$

He gives 3/7 of it to her friend.

To find how many gallons of ice tea does Morris have left , we subtract 3/7 from 11/4

$\frac{11}{4}- \frac{3}{7}$

Make the denominators same

$\frac{11*7}{4*7}- \frac{3*4}{7*4}$

$\frac{77}{28}- \frac{12}{28}$

$\frac{65}{28}$

$\frac{65}{28} = 2 \frac{9}{28}$

Mrs. Avery's class ate 1/5 of their green pepper pizza and 9/12 of their pepperoni pizza. Which pizza did they eat more of?

Anton [14]

So what you have to do is make the denominators equal. You do that by finding out what number they can both go into which is 60. 12 can go into 60 5 times and so you have to do 9/12 times 5 which is 40/60. then 5 goes into 60 12 times so you have to do 1/5 times 5 which is 12/60. Then you see that 40/60 >12/60 therefore the class ate more of the pepperoni pizza
