1. First, let's have the pieces have the same denominator: 8!

3/8 is already fine

1/2 = 4/8

3/4 = 6/8

Now add up the numerators: 13 pieces were eaten.

Since there are 3 pies, there's 24 pieces total

24 - 13 = 11

11 pieces are left over

2. First, 3/4 x 6 = 4.5

1 1/2 x 5 = 7.5

4.5 + 7.5 = 12

-5 + 12 = 7

At 5:00 pm, it was 7 degrees.

Hope this helps!

Answer for the first question: There are 13 pieces of pie left.

Step-by-step explanation: So there are 3 pieces of apple pie left, there are 4 pieces of cherry pie left, and there are 6 pieces of pumpkin pie left. 3 + 4 + 6 = 13.

3/8 = 3 pieces because each fraction in this one equals one piece. So the numerator is how many left.

1/2= 4 because you just divide 8 by 2.

3/4 = 2 because you can multiply the fraction by 2 and get 6/8. Then the numerator is how many that's left.

Therefore, there are 13 pieces of pie left.
