Jillian had 5 6 of a whole and took 3 6 away from it. how much does she have left?

=

Since the denominators of both fractions are common , that is 6

To subtract, subtract the numerators leaving the denominator

- = =

This fraction may be simplified by dividing the numerator/ denominator by 2

= ← in simplest form

the ratio of white tiles to blue tiles is 48: 16. the ratio in it's simplest form is 3: 1.

step-by-step explanation:

ratio: take the first number and add a colon next to it, then add the second number after that. make sure the ratio order matches up with the written problem!

simplest form: we can simplify the ratio 48 : 16 by dividing both terms by the greatest common factor (gcf).

the gcf of 48 and 16 is 16.

divide both terms by 16:

48 ÷ 16 = 3

16 ÷ 16 = 1

reducing to simplest form:

48 : 16 = 3 : 1
