Question

The cool sub shop is having its grand opening. The owner buys three 1/4-page ads,four 1/8-page ads,and ten 1/16-page ads. What is the total amount of ad space that the owner buys?

Answer 1

1/4 = 4/16 page ads 3
1/8= 2/16 page ads 4
1/16=1/16 page ads 10
=3 (4/16)+4 (2/16)+10 (1/16)
=12/16 +8/16 + 10/ 16
=(12+8+10)/16
=30/16 ad space
