pat has some t-shirts. 1/4 of the t-shirts are pink, 1/2 of the remainder are white and the rest are purple. what fraction of the t-shirts are purple?

1/4 of the t-shirts are pink

There are 3/4 of the shirts remaining.

1/2 of these 3/4 are white. so we multiply to get 3/8

the rest are purple.
we know 1/4 are pink and 3/8 are white.

Get a common denominator and add these two fractions and then subtract from 1 which can be written as 8/8 to find the fraction that are purple.

3/8

3/8

1/4 x 1/2= 1/8 Half of that is 1/4 Hope this Helps!!

5/8

2/8 + 3/8 = 5/8 these are pink and white.

How many are purple? 8/8 - 5/8 = ?
