Answer: 1/4 full.
Step-by-step explanation:
The question is asking for how much gas will be left in the tank after 2/3 of the gas in the tank is used.
There is currently 3/4 of the tank remaining.
To find 2/3 of 3/4, you can multiply the fractions together.
Do this by multiplying both numerators and both denominators:
[tex]\frac{2}{3} *\frac{3}{4} = \frac{2*3}{3*4} = \frac{6}{12}[/tex]
Then, subtract 6/12 from 3/4. You can do this by simplifying the first fraction to 2/4 (divide both the numerator and denominator by 3).
3/4 - 2/4 = 1/4
There will be 1/4 of the tank left.
Answer:
1/4
Step-by-step explanation:
We have 3/4 of a tank
We will use 2/3 of the gas in the tank
See the diagram That will leave us 1/4
Mathmatically
3/4*2/3 = 2/4 =1/2 this is the amount that is used
Subtract this from the amount in the tank
3/4 -1/2
3/4 -2/4 = 1/4
This is the amount that is left in the tank
