Question

The Murphy family is on a road trip. On the first day, they traveled 30% of their total distance. On the second day, they traveled another 1 4of the total distance. What fraction of the total distance do they have left after

Answer 1

5/12

Explanation:

Total distance travelled = 30% + 1/4

To add these numbers, convert 30% to fraction

30% = 1/3

1/3 + 1/4 = 7/12

Remaining distance = 1 - 7/12 = 5/12
