A piece of string is 5 5/8 inches long. How much should Lena cut off to make it 3 1/2 inches long?
Answered by maham237 @
Answer:
2 1/8 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we make the fractions into improper fractions:
5 5/8 = 45/8
3 1/2 = 7/2
Now we make them to have the same denominator
7/2 = 28/8
Now we substract
45/8 - 28/8 = 17/8
17/8 = 2 1/8 inches
