Debra has 2/3 of a pound of loose green tea leaves. If she wants to keep one-half if the tea at home and the other half at work, what fraction of a pound will she have at work?
a) 1/6
b) 1/4
c) 1/3
d) 1/3
the answer is 1/6 because 2/3-1/2 the command denominator is 6 so 2 goes in six 3 times then you do 3×1 =3 so you got 3/6 then you do 3 goes in 6 2 times then you do 2×2=4 and 4-3=1 so you get 1/6
