Question

Ana is reading a medical journal. Ana read 3 1 of the journal on Saturday and of 10 2 the journal on Sunday. What fraction of the journal does Ana still need to read? Ana still needs to read of the journal 1 whole 110 SKIP FOR NOW O

Answer 1

First, we have to sum the fractions she already read.

`(3)/(10)+(1)/(2)=(6+10)/(20)=(16)/(20)=(8)/(10)=(4)/(5)`

This means Ana already read 4/5 of the journal, the missing quantity is the complement fraction to 4/5, which is 1/5.

Hence, she still needs to read 1/5 of the journal.
