Tank A has a capacity of 9.5 gallons. 6 1\3 gallons of the tank"s water are poured out. How many gallons of water are left in the tank

Respuesta :

Answer:  Since 1/3 can't be turned into a decimal, change .5 into 1/2. In order to subtract, the fractions need a common denominator. The least common denominator is 6. So 1/3 turns into 2/6, and 1/2 turns into 3/6. Now you need to take 9 3/6 minus 6 2/6. The answer is 3 1/6 gallons of water.
