Question

1 3/4 pounds of pancake mix. Jada used 7/8 pound for a recipe. What fraction of the pancake mix in the box did she use?

Answer 1

I honestly don’t know but text me I’ll get you it

Answer 2

7/8

Explanation:

If you turn 1 3/4 back into a simplified fraction it is 7/4. But the denominators need to be the same, so multiply the bottom number 2 and the top number by 2. That gives you 14/8. If she used 7/8 of it, then you just do 14/8 - 7/8 which gives you 7/8.
