Question

7 8 Model with Math Leesa has gallon of juice. She shares gallon. Write and solve an equation to find j, how much juice Leesa has left.

​

Answer 1

Leesa has
`\( (4)/(8) \)` gallons of juice left.

1. Leesa starts with
`\( (7)/(8) \)` gallon of juice.

2. She shares
`\( (3)/(8) \)` gallon with others.

3. To find how much juice Leesa has left, we subtract the shared amount from the initial amount:

`\[ (7)/(8) - (3)/(8) = (4)/(8) \].`

4. Simplifying the fraction
`\( (4)/(8) \) gives \( (1)/(2) \)`.

5. Therefore, Leesa has
`\( (1)/(2) \)` gallon of juice left, which can also be expressed as
`\( 1 (1)/(2) \)` or
`\( 1 (2)/(4) \)` gallons.
