Question

6) Aribbon is of the length 12/15 m. Now 4/15 part of the ribbon is cutted. Find the remaining part​

Answer 1

Answer:

12/75 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Length of the ribbon = 12/15 m

Part of the ribbon cut = 4/15

Therefore, part of the ribbon cut = 4/15 of 12/15 = 4/15 x 12/15 = 16/25 m

Therefore, remaining part of the ribbon = 12/15 - 16/25 = 12/75 m

Therefore, length of the remaining part of the ribbon is 12/75 m.

Answer 2

Answer:

In order to add and subtract fractions, they must have the same denominator.

Convert 1/3 m to a fraction with the denominator of 15.

1/3 m × 5/5 = 5/15 m

Subtract 5/15 m from 12/15 m.

12/15 m — 5/15 m = 7/15 m

The fraction of the remaining ribbon is 7/15 m.
