Question

2/3 of the pizza was left over from last night. Then, Marcy ate another 2/9 of it. How much is left now?

Answer 1

First, find the LCD; that is 9.

2/3 = 6/9

6/9 – 2/9 = 4/9

There is 4/9 of the pizza left.

Answer 2

Answer: 4/9

Explanation:

First find the LCD between 2/3 and 2/9. Which is 9

Then you place the fractions into like terms

2 =6

3 9

6/9 - 2/ 9= 4/9
