A large hose can fill 7/8 of a water tank in one hour. A small hose can fill 3/4 of a water tank in one hour. How much more of a water tank can the large hose fill in one hour than the small hose?
can fill

The large hose can fill 1/8 more of the tank in on hour than the small hose

Step-by-step explanation:

To understand this, we need to make 7/8 and 3/4 have the same denominator

3/4 and 6/8 are the same in decimal form (0.75)

So we change 3/4 to 6/8

So now we subtract what the small hose fills per hour from what the large hose fills per hour

7/8 - 6/8 = 1/8

So the large hose fills 1/8 more of the tank per hour than the small hose

hey! so 1 (25) out of 4 (100) is 25 so your answer is 25%. it's like quarters!
