At the neighborhood block party, Camille served 1/2 of a gallon of hot chocolate and 1/3 of a gallon of apple cider. How much more hot chocolate than apple cider did Camille serve? Write your answer as a fraction or as a whole or mixed number.

1/6 more hot chocolate than apple cider.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to complete this, you first have to make both numbers have the same denominator.

2: 2, 4, 6

3: 3, 6

The new denominator is 6.

1/2 - 3/6

1/3 - 2/6

These are the new fractions after making the numbers have common denominators.

3/6 - 2/6 = 1/6

Camille serves 1/6 more hot chocolate than apple cider.
