Answer:
Jane is 11 1/4 years old.
Step-by-step explanation:
Subtract all of the numbers given.
[tex]13\frac{5}{6} -1\frac{1}{3} -1\frac{1}{4}[/tex].
To subtract this, we need to find a common denominator.
A common denominator in this situation is 12. To do this multiply the 5 and the 6 of 5/6 by 2. Multiply the 1 and the 3 of 1/3 by 4. And multiply the 1 and the 4 1/4 by 3.
The new expression will look like this:
[tex]13\frac{10}{12} -1\frac{4}{12} -1\frac{3}{12}[/tex].
Now we can subtract.
[tex]13\frac{10}{12} -1\frac{4}{12} -1\frac{3}{12}=11\frac{3}{12}[/tex]
Reduce the answer.
[tex]11\frac{3}{12}=11\frac{1}{4}[/tex]
In decimal form 11.25
Hope this helps!
If not, I am sorry.
