Susan had 8/10 of a gallon of paint. She used 1/3 of the 8/10 of a gallon to paint her bathroom. How much paint did susan use to paint her bathroom


Sagot :

First you have to turn 8/10 and 1/3 into equivalent fractions. 8/10 turns into 24/30 and 1/3 turns into 10/30. 24/30 minus 10/30 equals 14/30. After u simplify 14/30 you get 7/15.

Your answer is 7/15
This is a multiplication problem.
You multiply 8/10 by 1/3 (of means multiply!) and you get 8/30.
