Question

2/8 of a necklace is red. What part of the necklace is not red?

Answer 1

Let convert this into a problem we know in real life. Suppose a pie has 8 slices. If we take 2, we have 6 left. Same here for this problem. If we take
`(2)/(8)` from
`(8)/(8)` we have
`(6)/(8)`

Answer 2

6/8 because 8/8 would be the total and 8/8-2/8 would be 6/8.
