Of the 120 apartments in a building, 75 have been scheduled to receive new carpet. what fraction of the apartments have not been scheduled to receive new carpet?

Hello!

To find the fraction of the apartments that have not been scheduled to receive new carpet, we need first need find the number of apartments not receiving new carpet, by subtracting the total amount of apartments, by the 75 that have been scheduled.

120 - 75 = 45 apartments

Next, we need to create a fraction. Since 45 out of 120 apartments not are scheduled to get new carpeting, the fraction of these values is 45/120. This can be reduced to 3/8.

Therefore, your final answer is 45/120, simplified to 3/8.

There are 120 apartments in all. 75 are scheduled to receive new carpet.

The question is asking for the fraction of the apartments that have not been scheduled to recieve new carpet.

First, subtract 75 from 120:

120 - 75 = 45

45 apartments have not been scheduled.

Place the part (45) over the whole

45/120, or 3/8 of the apartments have not been scheduled.
