Wyatt is hiking a trail that is 11/12 mile long. after hiking 1/4 mile he stops for water. how much farther must he hike to finish the trail?

D = 11/12 mile
stop = 1/4 mile
d_remaining =
d_remaining =d - stop
d_remaining = 11/12 - 1/4 
1/4 = 1*3 / 4*3 = 3/12 You are doing this so that 1/4 has the same denominator as 11/12
d_remaining = 11/12 - 3/12 = 8/12
Wyatt has 8/12 of a mile to go 8/12 = 2/3 of a mile to go
2/3 mile <<<<< Answer.

You could also do this as a decimal
11/12 = 11 divide by 12 = 0.91666666667
1/4 = 0.25
Remainder = 0.9166666667 - 0.25
Remainder = 0.6666666 which is 2/3
I have not been particularly careful about how many 6s you get. Just copy what your calculator says..
