Question

Natalie lives 1/6 mile from school. Peter lives 3/10 mile from school. How many miles further does Peter live from the school than Natalie?

Answer 1

2/15

Explanation:

We need to find the difference between the houses

Peter - Natalie

3/10 - 1/6

Get a common denominator of 30

3/10 * 3/3 - 1/6*5/5

9/30 - 5/30

4/30

Divide top and bottom by 2

2/15
