sadie practiced her spelling words for 3/4 of an hour and max practiced his spelling words for 5/12 of an hour. in simplest firm how muxh longer dud sadie practice than max

Respuesta :

We can calculate how much more Sadie practice than Max by substracting the time that Max practice (5/12) from the time that Sadie practiced (3/4):

[tex]\frac{3}{4}-\frac{5}{12}=\frac{3}{4}\cdot\frac{3}{3}-\frac{5}{12}=\frac{9}{12}-\frac{5}{12}=\frac{9-5}{12}=\frac{4}{12}=\frac{1}{\frac{12}{4}}=\frac{1}{3}[/tex]

Answer: Sadie practiced 1/3 of an hour more than Max.
