Ann had 75 fliers to post around town. Last week, she posted 2/5 of the fliers. This wee, she posted 2/3 of the fliers. How many fliers did not get posted?

75/5=15 so 1/5=15, and 2/5 would be 30 (week 1);  75-30=45 remaining.  45/3=15 so 1/3=15, and 2/3 would be 30 (week 2);  45-30=15 did not get posted

Hello!

You must multiply, subtract, and divide for this question:

75/5 = 15

15 * 2 = 30

75 - 30 = 45

45/3 = 15

15 * 2 = 30

45 - 30 = 15

So, 15 flyers did not get posted.

I really hope this helped you! :)
