Sagot :

Albert rode 5/8 of the rides which can be simplified to 10/16.

His sister Reina rode half which was 5/16.

Its asking how much did she not ride

So 16/16 - 5/16

Reina did not ride 11/16 of the ride

Answer:

[tex]\frac{11x}{16}[/tex] rides

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of rides at a water part = x

Alberto rode the water rides = [tex](\frac{5x}{8} )[/tex]

Reina rode half of the rides that Alberto rode = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] [tex](\frac{5x}{8} )[/tex]

= [tex](\frac{5x}{16} )[/tex]

the water rides did Reina not ride =  [tex]x-\frac{5x}{16}[/tex]

                                                        = [tex]\frac{16x-5x}{16}[/tex]

                                                        = [tex]\frac{11x}{16}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{11x}{16}[/tex] rides Reina did not ride.
