the answer is 3/10 guys
Change the fractions to equivalent fractions.
3/5 = 6/10
Add the two numbers and subtract from 10/10 to find how much he has left.
Is it
16/10
?
So am I wrong?
So what is the answer now
So pls tell me
This is a bit hard 😐
To find out what fraction of Ted's pocket money is left, we need to subtract the fractions he spent from the whole amount.
First, let's determine the fraction of pocket money Ted spent on games. We are given that he spent 3/5 on games.
Next, let's find the fraction he spent on magazines. It's mentioned that he spent 1/10 on magazines.
To combine these fractions, we need to find a common denominator. The least common multiple (LCM) of 5 and 10 is 10.
Now, let's convert the fractions to have a common denominator of 10:
3/5 becomes 6/10 (multiplying the numerator and denominator by 2)
1/10 remains as 1/10.
To find the total fraction that Ted spent, we add the fractions together:
6/10 + 1/10 = 7/10
Now, subtract the fraction Ted spent from 1 (the whole amount):
1 - 7/10 = 3/10
Therefore, 3/10 of Ted's pocket money is left.
