Sergi’s grandmother sent him 10.00 for his birthday. He gave 1/10 of it in church, spent 1/5 of it on a toy , and spent 3/5 of it on a shirt. How much money does he have left ?

Answer:

1$

Explanation:

Start by giving all the fractions a common denominator, here we will use 10.

we already have 1/10

1/5 turns to 2/10

and 3/5 turns to 6/10

add those together and get 9/10

9/10 of 10 is 9$, thats how much he spent

Notice you have 1$ left, that is the answer
