Question

Help please I don’t understand

Answer 1

Jasmine = 1/6

Explanation:

Roses = 1/3

Lilies = 1/2

Jasmine = ?

The total has to equal 1

1/3 + 1/2 + J = 1

Get a common denominator of 6

1/3 *2/2 + 1/2 *3/3 + J = 1 *6/6

2/6 + 3/6 +J = 6/6

5/6 +J = 6/6

Subtract 5/6 from each side

5/6 -5/6 +J = 6/6 -5/6

J = 1/6
