Question

Amanda slept for 1/3 of the day. She played with her friends for 1/5 of the day. She spent the rest of the day working on a school project. What fraction of the day did she spend working on her project

Answer 1

Amanda spent 7/15 of the day working on her project.

Explanation:

• 1/3 x 5/5 = 5/15
• 1/5 x 3/3 = 3/15
• 5/15 + 3/15 = 8/15
• 15/15 - 8/15 = 7/15
