Question
I have a large pot containing 6 liters of soup broth. If I divide the soup broth into 33/3 liters for
vegetable soup and 15/8 liters for beef soup, find the leftover liters of soup broth.

Answer 1

Answer:

3 / 8 litres

Step-by-step explanation:

Total soup broth = 6 liters

Vegetable soup = 3 3/3 litres = 3 + 1 = 4 litres

Beef soup = 1 5/8 litres

Fraction of soup left :

Total - (vegetable + beef)

6 - (4 + 1 5/8)

6 - 5 5/8

6 - 5 - 5 /8

1 - 5/8

(8 - 5) / 8

= 3 / 8 litres
