Adan used the three fractions to make a circle graph colored each a different color. What fraction of the graph is not colored?Explein your answer 2/5 ,1/6 ,and 1/3. Can somebody help me!!!!
Change each of the fractions to equivalent fractions with a common denominator of 30.
Add them together.
Subtract the sum from 30/30
To find the fraction of the circle graph that is not colored, we need to subtract the sum of the fractions used to color the graph from 1 (since the entire circle represents the whole).
Given the fractions 2/5, 1/6, and 1/3:
Step 1: Add the fractions used to color the graph:
2/5 + 1/6 + 1/3
Step 2: Find the common denominator to add the fractions:
The common denominator of 5, 6, and 3 is 30.
Step 3: Convert the fractions to have a denominator of 30:
2/5 = 12/30
1/6 = 5/30
1/3 = 10/30
Step 4: Add the converted fractions:
12/30 + 5/30 + 10/30 = 27/30
Step 5: Subtract the sum of the colored fractions from 1 to find the fraction of the graph that is not colored:
1 - 27/30
To simplify this answer, we can divide both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common divisor, which is 3:
1 - (27/30) = (30/30) - (27/30) = 3/30 = 1/10
Therefore, the fraction of the graph that is not colored is 1/10.
