Explanation / Answer

Question 1

Run laps = 2/3

Worked out in the room = 1/4

Team ran laps - Team worked out = 2/3 - 1/4 = (4 * 2 - 3 * 1)/(4 * 3) = 5/12

QUestion 2

CD use = 1/2

Savings = 1/3

Total utilization = 1/2 + 1/3 = (3 + 2)/(3 *2) = 5/6

Question 3

Total pack of construction paper = 8/9

Total papers used to make airplanes = 1/5 of total pack of construction paper

Fraction of original pack used to make airplanes = 8/9 * 1/5 = 8 / (9 * 5) = 8/45

Question 4

Logan sold = 7/8

Nathan sold = 6/7

Logan sold - Nathan sold = 7/8 - 6/7 = (7 * 7 - 8 * 6)/ (8 * 7) = 1/56

Question 5

Total nails of 1/2 pound = 8

Total nails of 3/8 pounds = 16

Total weight = 1/2 + 3/8 = (8* 1 + 3 * 2)/16 = 7/8 pound

Question 6

Total planted soyabean = 4/5

Total soyabean picked = 5/6 of total planted soyabean

What fraction was picked that day = (4/5) * (5/6) = 4/6 = 2/3
