Question

Robert watched

1
4
of a movie in the morning, and he watched some more at night. By the end of the day, he still had
1
3
of the movie left to watch. How much of the movie did Robert watch at night?

Answer 1

To get this, we will need to add 1/4 and 1/3 to get the amount that was watched between the two. To do this, we need to get the common denominator, which is 12. Once we multiply the sides to get the common denominator, we will get 3/12 and 4/12. we can add these to be 7/12, and that means that Robert had watched 5/12 of the movie at night.
