Kehlani is making a table. All but one of the boards that she uses to make the table are 15/16 inches thick. Kehlani’s last board is 1 1/8 inches thick. By how much does Kehlani need to reduce the thickness of her last board to match the other boards?

Answer:

3/16 of an inch

Explanation:

1 1/8 of an inch is 1 2/16, which is also 18/16. 18/16-15/16 = 3/16.
