To answer this question you will subtract. We have a total amount of mulch that we are taking some away from. It would be 10 - 3 2/7. Here are two ways to show how to subtract.
1. Regroup the 10 whole to be able to subtract with common denominators.
10 = 9 7/7
- 3 2/7 =
-3 2/7
6 5/7
or
2. Make 10 whole into an improper fraction with a denominator of 7.
10 = 10/1 = 70/7
-3 2/7 = 23/7 =
-23/7
47/7
47/7 = 6 5/7
Hope this helps!!
