To make dinner Monica needs 2 3/4 cup of water for the pasta and 3 1/8 cup for the rice. She also needs 6 1/24 cup of flour for the dessert. How much more flour does Monica need than water to make her dinner and dessert?

Respuesta :

Answer:

[tex]\frac{1}{6}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we have to find how much water Monica needs in total:

[tex]2\frac{3}{4} + 3\frac{1}{8} = 5\frac{7}{8}[/tex]

We have given that she needs [tex]6\frac{1}{24}[/tex] amount of floor for the dessert and we have to find the difference between the amount of water and floor.

[tex]6\frac{1}{24} -  5\frac{7}{8} = 1\frac{1 - 21}{24} = \frac{25 - 21}{24} = \frac{4}{24} = \frac{1}{6}[/tex]
