Alice had 10/12 yard of fabric. she used 8/12 for a pillow. how much fabric did she have left? explain how you found your answer.

Alice has 2/12, or 1/6 yards of fabric left. I found my answer because since 10/12 and 8/12 have the same denominator, I can subtract without finding a common denominator. 10 - 8 is 2, so the answer is 2/12, or 1/6.

i think there was a typo. you wrote pat brings 3 quarts of ice-cream to the party. each serving of ice-cream is 1 6 quart. how many total servings of ice-cream does pat bring to the party? i think the bold is supposed to be 1/6. so 1 quart of ice cream = 6 servings. 6 * 3 = 18.

the answer is 18.

If jon had $4.00 then takes away $2.25, then he should have $1.75 left. $4.00 - $2.25 = $1.75 hope this ; )
