Max will get 1/4 of the bag, Jasmine will get 1/3, and Springer will get the rest. What fractional part of the whole bag of mix will Springer get? Explain how you found your answer.

Respuesta :

a common denominator for the 2 fractions you already have and subtract them from one ten simplify your answer (3/12 +4/12=7/12    1-7/12=5/12) and you cant simplify that so the answer is 5/12

Max = 1/4

Jasmine  = 1/3

1/4 + 1/3 =

 find common denominator ( 12) 1/4 = 3/12, 1/3= 4/12

3/12 + 4/12 = 7/12

 so Springer will eat 1 - 7/12 = 12/12 - 7/12 = 5/12
