Felicia pours 3/4 of a 2 1/2-liter bottle of chlorine solution into a swimming pool. Then, she measures out the liter of the remaining solution to use to clean the pool filter. How much chlorine solution is left in the bottle?

Sagot :

well, is simply the difference from what the bottle has and what she poured, hmm let's firstly convert the mixed fraction to improper fraction and then subtract.

[tex]\stackrel{mixed}{2\frac{1}{2}}\implies \cfrac{2\cdot 2+1}{2}\implies \stackrel{improper}{\cfrac{5}{2}} \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ \cfrac{5}{2}~~ - ~~\cfrac{3}{4}\implies \cfrac{(2)5~~ - ~~(1)3}{\underset{\textit{using this LCD}}{4}}\implies \cfrac{10-3}{4}\implies \cfrac{7}{4}\implies 1\frac{3}{4}[/tex]
