Ida catches four fish that weigh 5 1/4, 3 1/2, 1 3/4 and 2 pounds each. She releases the smallest fish. What is the total weight of the fish that Ida keeps?????
Add the weights of the three largest fish.
which = 10 2/4? Then what??
I get:
5 1/4 + 3 2/4 + 2 = 10 3/4
The total weight of the fish is 10 3/4 pounds.
