Grant has 2/3 cup of ice cream in a bowl. He then removes two 1/6 cups of ice cream to share with his little brother. Which of the following best explains the amount of ice cream left in Grant's bowl?
Options to pick below!
(A) 2/6, because 2/3-2*(1/6)=2/3-3/6,
(B) 2/6 because 2/3-2*(1/6)=2/3-2/6,
(C) 1/6 because 2/3-2*(1/6)=2/3-3/6,
(D) 1/6 because 2/3-2*(1/6)=2/3-2/6
Please help Thankyou!
You want to make both denomiator's in this problem the same, So you have: 23−26=?We can find the LCM
(Least common mulitple) of these numbers, which is 6 because 6*1 = 6 and 3*2 = 6 So now we know we have 26but we need to change 23 to a denomiator of 6, we
can do this by simply changing it to six and to find the numerator we divde 6 by 3 and then multiply the quotient by the numerator of 2/3 which is to
so 2*2 is equal to 4 so now we have 46−26=26
So now we know 26 is or answer. whic reduces to 13
Well I'm leaving this in your judgemnet to figure that part out. we have presented how to solve for the solution.
