You have 24 homework problems for math class. You finish 12 of them during some extra time in class. If you complete 4 more problems while waiting for the bus, what fraction of the 24 problems will remain?

Answer:

1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

1/3.

Step-by-step explanation:

24-12-4=8

We have 8 problems left out of 24, so 8/24 is the faction we have then.

To simplify we must find the GCF (Greatest Common Factor,) which is 8.

We then divide each number by 8:

--->8/8=1

--->24/8=3

So then the fraction is 1/3.

Hope this helps. :)
