I need help please i​

Answer 1

2 7/24

Explanation:

Hank Cows:

4 3/4 and 4 1/8

Debra Cows:

5 1/2 and 5 2/3

To find the difference between Hank cows and Debra cows..

we first have to add both cows together:

4 3/4 + 4 1/8 = 8 7/8 {Hank}

5 1/2 + 5 2/3 = 11 1/6 {Debra}

Since now we know Hank and Debra total gallons of milk we can solve and find out the difference.

11 1/6 - 8 7/8 = 2 7/24

Hence, Debra have 2 7/24 more gallons of milk than Hank.

Answer 2

2 7/24

Explanation:

First we have to add the gallons of two cow of each owner:

Hank's cows: 4 3/4 + 4 1/8

Add the whole numbers:

4 + 4 = 8

Now for 3/4 and 1/8

Find common

6/8 + 1/8

= 7/8

Put together :

8 7/8

Debra's cows: 5 1/2 + 5 2/3

Add the whole number

5 + 5 = 10

Now for 1/2 and 2/3

3/6 + 4/6

1 1/6

10 + 1 1/6

= 11 1/6

Since now we know that:

Hank - 8 7/8

Debra - 11 1/6

we can solve the question:

How many more gallons of milk did Debra's two cows produce on that compared to Hank's two cows?

Solution:

11 1/6 - 8 7/8

Subtract whole number

11 - 8 = 3

Now for 1/6 and 7/8

4/24 - 21/24

4-21/24

-17/24

2 7/24
