Question

Ethan sold 2 3 gallon of lemonade. Kayla sold some lemonade too. Together, they sold 1 1 4 gallons. Who sold more lemonade, Ethan or Kayla? How much more? Label the total amount of lemonade Ethan and Kayla sold

Answer 1

Explanation:

Ethan sold 2/3 gallon of lemonade.

Kayla sold some lemonade too.

Together they sold 1 1/4 gallons.

Subtract 2/3 from 1 1/4 as follows :

`S=1(1)/(4)-(2)/(3)\\\\=(5)/(4)-(2)/(3)\\\\=(7)/(12)`

So, Kayla sold 7/12 gallons of lemonade.

As 2/3 is more than 7/12, it means Ethan sold more lemonade.

`(2)/(3)-(7)/(12)=(1)/(12)`

It means Eathn sold 1/12 more lemonade.
