Question

Max has 4/5 qt of apple juice. He drinks 1/2 qt of it. How many apple juice does he have left? (Give your answer in quarts)

Answer 1

3/10 quarts.

Explanation:

Set the denominators equal to one another.

4/5 = 8/10 (multiplied by a factor of 2)

1/2 = 5/10 (multiplied by a factor of 5)

Subtract the 5/10 from the 8/10

3/10 qt
