Solutions

Question 1
4.5

Question 2
To find the total time the siblings spent indoors, we need to add the time they spent playing video games and watching TV. 4/7 + 1/7 = 5/7. Therefore, the siblings spent 5/7 of an hour indoors.

Question 3
To find the answer, we simply add the two fractions together. 3/8 + 5/8 = 8/8 or 1. Therefore, the students spent 1 hour studying.

Question 4
To find the fraction of books Mia borrowed, we need to divide the number of books she borrowed by the total number of books on artists. The total number of books on artists is 30 + 20 = 50. If she borrowed 10 books, the fraction of books she borrowed is 10/50 or 1/5.

Question 5
To find the answer to this problem, subtract the distance travelled from the total distance to be covered. Therefore, 8 2/3 - 5 1/3 can be written as (8 + 2/3) - (5 + 1/3) = 3 + (2/3 - 1/3) = 3 + 1/3. Therefore, Bob needs to drive 3 1/3 more miles to reach the restaurant.

Question 6
To find the fraction of the tart remaining, we need to subtract the fraction that Sarah ate from 1. The fraction of tart remaining is therefore (7/7) - (2/7) which simplifies to 5/7.

Question 7
To find the fraction of Maria's marbles that are red, we need to divide the number of red marbles by the total number of marbles. So the fraction is 5/30. However, this fraction can be simplified by dividing both the numerator and denominator by 5. This gives us 1/6 as the simplified fraction.

Question 8
There are 8 cups of flour, and 3 will be used for muffins, leaving 5 cups for pancakes. The fraction of flour used for muffins is 3/8. The fraction of flour used for pancakes is 5/8.

Question 9
To find out how many seeds the birds have left, we need to subtract the amount they shared with their chicks from the amount they took. 3 1/2 - 1 1/2 = 2. Therefore, the birds have 2 seeds left.

Question 10
Amanda gave a total of 6+3=9 slices to Ethan and Olivia. Thus, Amanda has 15-9=6 slices left. To find the fraction of the watermelon she has left, we can represent it as a fraction as follows: 6/15 This fraction can be simplified to 2/5. Therefore, Amanda has 2/5 of the watermelon left.

Question 11
To find the total fraction of the classroom covered by furniture, we add the fraction covered by desks and the fraction covered by chairs: 4/10 + 2/10 = 6/10. Simplifying 6/10, we get 3/5. Therefore, 3/5 of the classroom is covered by furniture.

Question 12
To find the fraction of Sarah's marbles that are yellow, divide the number of yellow marbles (15) by the total number of marbles (50). This can be written as a fraction: 15/50. However, this fraction can be simplified by dividing both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common factor, which is 5. The simplified fraction is 3/10, so the answer is: 3/10.

Question 13
To solve the problem, first, we need to add the mixed numbers and fractions. We have 3 whole pies and 4/8 of another pie, which can be simplified to 1/2 of a pie. Similarly, Alice ate 1 whole pie and 3/8 of another pie, which can be simplified to 5/8 of a pie. Now, we need to subtract the amount of pie that Alice ate from the total amount of pie that Linda made. We have: 3 1/2 - 1 5/8 = 2 3/8. Therefore, there are 2 3/8 servings of pie left.

Question 14
To find the total number of servings of lemon cake Tom gave away, we need to add the fractions of servings he gave to Alex and Lucy. First, we need to find a common denominator, which is 9. Then, we can add the fractions: 3 7/9 + 6 2/9 = 9 9/9 = 10/1. Therefore, Tom gave away 10/1 servings of lemon cake, which can be simplified to 10.

Question 15
To find the fraction of pumpkin pie purchased in the first 20 minutes, we need to divide the number of pieces purchased by the total number of pieces in the pie. Here, 9 pieces out of 10 were purchased. Therefore, the fraction of pumpkin pie purchased in the first 20 minutes is 9/10.

Question 16
To find out the total liquid in the big bowl, we need to add the volume of apple juice, lemonade, and water. Total liquid = 19 L + 16 L + 43 L Total liquid = 78 L Therefore, there are 78 L of liquid in the big bowl.

Question 17
To find out how much change Bob will receive, we need to subtract the cost of the tickets from the amount he paid. First, let's convert the quarter to a fraction. 1 quarter is 1/4. Now we can add: 3 + 1/4 = 12/4 + 1/4 = 13/4. So the cost of the tickets is 13/4 dollars. To find the change, we'll need to subtract 13/4 from 10. We can convert 10 to a fraction by adding a denominator of 4: 10 = 40/4. Now we can subtract: 40/4 - 13/4 = 27/4. Simplifying, 27/4 = 6 3/4. So Bob will receive 6 dollars and 3 quarters in change.

Question 18
To find out who has a greater fraction of green marbles, we need to calculate the fraction of marbles that are green for both Ana and Maria. For Ana, the fraction of green marbles is 12/30 = 0.4 or 40%. For Maria, the fraction of green marbles is 6/20 = 0.3 or 30%. Therefore, Ana has a greater fraction of green marbles than Maria.

Question 19
To find the fraction of Emily's marbles that are black, we need to divide the number of black marbles by the total number of marbles. So, the fraction of Emily's marbles that are black is 8/20. This can be simplified to 2/5.

Question 20
To find the fraction of apples that Olivia brought, we need to divide the number of apples she brought by the total number of apples she found. So, the fraction she brought is 5/12.
