Question

The four friends purchased two same-sized pitchers of

soda for dinner.
• Jaxson drank 2/5 of a pitcher of soda.
• Kesha drank 0.4 of a pitcher of soda.
• Luann drank 1/2 of a pitcher of soda.
• Samuel drank the rest of the soda.
How much soda did Samuel drink?​

Answer 1

4/10 of a pitcher

Explanation:

Jaxon drank 2/5 = 0.2 = 4/10

Kesha drank 0.4 = 4/10

Luann drank 1/2 = 5/10

4/10 + 4/10 + 5/10 = 13/10 = 26/30

Which would leave Samuel to drink the remaining 4/10 of the soda.

Hope this helps (sorry if its confusing)
