Dan has walked 1/3 of the way to school. What fraction describes how far he still has to go? Is it 1/4,1/2,2/3,3/1
3/3 - 1/3 = ?
Sam looks at a number line with benchmark fractions and decides 3/4<5/6. Is this correct or wrong?
I'll be glad to check your answer.
correction its 3/4>5/6
Yes.
To determine the fraction that describes how far Dan still has to go, we first need to think about the fraction of the distance he has already walked. We are told that Dan has walked 1/3 of the way to school.
If Dan has already completed 1/3 of the distance, that means he still has 2/3 of the distance left to cover. Therefore, the fraction that describes how far he still has to go is 2/3.
So, the correct answer is 2/3.
