A market sells 5 2/3 pounds of blueberries in the morning. In the afternoon, the market sells 11/12 pound less blueberries. How many pounds of blueberries are sold in the morning and afternoon altogether?

Respuesta :

The pounds of blueberries that are sold in the morning and afternoon altogether will be 10 5/12 pounds.

  • Fractions sold in the morning = 5 2/3
  • Fractions sold in the afternoon = 5 2/3 - 11/12 = 4 3/4

Therefore, the pounds of blueberries that are sold in the morning and afternoon altogether will be:

= 5 2/3 + 4 3/4

= 9 17/12

= 10 5/12

In conclusion, 10 5/12 pounds will be sold.
