Please help me! Christian, Freddy, and Skyler are all drinking orange juice from the same-size cartons in the cafeteria. Christian's carton is 3/7 packed. Freddy's carton is 3/10 complete. Kevin's carton is 3/4 full. Who has the least milk left in their carton?

Answer: Freddy

Explanation:

Choose a common denominator for all the fractions. Let's use 140.

Christian: 3/7 = 60/140

Freddy: 3/10 = 42/140

Skyler: 3/4 = 105/140

The least value is 42/140
