Question

Janelle has a 12-ounce can of soft drink. She drinks 3/5 of the soft drink.

Answer 1

the answer is she has 4oz left of her drink

Answer 2

Answer: 4.8 ounces

Explanation:

In total there are 12 ounces. If she drinks 3/5 of 12 you multiply 3/5 by 12.

3/5 * 12 would be equal to 3/5 * 12/1 which is 36/5. You have found how much she has drank. 36/5 is also equal to 7.2 ounces. Subtract 7.2 form 12 and you get 4.8 ounces.

Hope this helped!
