Question

Please help this is another one I really don't understand!!

It requires 1/4 of a credit to play a video game for one minute.
a. Emma has 7/8 credits. Can she play for more or less than one minute? Explain how you know.
b. How long can Emma play the video game with her 7/8 credits.

Answer 1

1/4 is the same as 2/8. Since emma has 7/8 credits, she can’t play another minute, since 7+2 would be 9 (bigger than 8).

She can play the video game for half a minute, because 1/8 (how much she can use) is half of 2/8, Which would be a whole minute
