Skyler is making cookies to donate to the bake sale at his local grocery store he makes 2/3 of the cookies on a given night and only has enough time to decorate 1/4 of them what is a fractional portional remaining that he still needs to decorate
To find the fractional portion remaining that Skyler still needs to decorate, we can subtract the fraction of cookies already decorated from the fraction of cookies made.
Fraction of cookies made = 2/3
Fraction of cookies decorated = 1/4
Fractional portion remaining = (2/3) - (1/4)
= (8/12) - (3/12)
= 5/12
Therefore, Skyler still needs to decorate 5/12 of the cookies.
