Question

Alice completed 1/8 of her homework on saturday and 3/4 on sunday. what fraction of her homework does alice still need to complete

Answer 1

Convert 3/4 to eighths so we can add the fractions

3/4 x 2/2 = 6/8

Now 6/* + 1/8 = 7/8 

So, 7/8 (seven eighths) have been completed

The whole is 8/8, and 8/8 - 7/8 = 1/8 (or one eighth) is left to do
