Question

you have 24 homework problems for math class. you finish 1/2 of them during some extra time in class. If you complete 4 more problems while waiting for the bus, what fracrion of the 24 problems will remain

Answer 1

Answer:

⅓ remaining

Step-by-step explanation:

½ of 24 = 12

12 + 4 = 16 done

24 - 16 = 8

8/24 = 1/3

Answer 2

Answer:

1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

1) we have 24 problems

2) we finish half of them

What is half of 24?

It’s 12

So far, we have 12 problems to do

Then we finished 4 more problems so we can subtract 4 from 12

12-4=8

8 more problems left out of the 24 we had

8/24=1/3

1/3 of the 24 problems remain

Hope this helps!
