Question

Henry made himself a sandwich that was 11/12 of a foot long. He put pepperoni on 3/4 of his sandwich. What length of the sandwich did not have pepperoni on it?

Answer 1

`(11)/(48)`

Explanation:

We have been Henry made himself a sandwich that was 11/12 of a foot long. He put pepperoni on 3/4 of his sandwich.

The part of sandwich, which has no pepperoni would be:

`1-(3)/(4)\Rightarrow(4)/(4)-(3)/(4)=(1)/(4)`

Now, we will find
`(1)/(4)` of
`(11)/(12)` as:

`(11)/(12)* (1)/(4)`

`(11* 1)/(12* 4)`

`(11)/(48)`

Therefore,
`(11)/(48)`of the sandwich did not have pepperoni on it.

Answer 2

if 3/4 has pepperoni, 1/4 does not

11/12 * 1/4 = 11/48 of a foot
