1/4 of the granola bar. Owen ate

B. 1−1/4+1/3=1−3/12+4/12
C. 1−14−1/3=1−3/12−4/12
D. 1+1/4+1/3=1+2/7

C would be your correct answer.
explanation : you would change both fractions to have a common denominator (bottom of the fraction) so 1/4 would equal 3/12 and 1/3 would equal 4/12, so together those would be 7/12 so you would subtract 7/12 from 1, which would be C.

Answer: I think it would be A

Explanation:

I just got into high school and its been hard for me and i want to do my best to help others. I would ask your teacher for help if you cant find this helpful. It seems kind of hard so i would look at A and you are going to see 4-1 i think thats a really good thing to look for cuz pwn ate 1/4 and its the same so i would go for A. If i got it wrong im so so sorry but i wish you good luck and dont give up you got this
