Question

i need to know this: 8 OF KIM'S 20 SHRTS ARE GREEN. WHAT FRACITONAL PART OF HER SHIRTS ARE NOT GREEN?

oh, and how do i show my work?

Answer 1

if 8 of her shirts are green....and you want to know how many are not green then u take the total o shirts minus the green shirts:
20-8=12
now fraction consists of 2 things....the number of something u want over the total number of things:
shirts that arent green/total number of shirts
12/20
remember to reduce/simplify that fraction
12/20=
3/5

Answer 2

Remember to make a fraction that represents how man of her shirts are green. 8/20. Then subtract that from the total amount of shirts she has. All of her shirts should be treated as one whole so, you other fraction to use to represent the rest of her shirts would be 20/20. Then you set up the problem and show your work like shown below.

20/20 - 8/20 = 12/20 = 3/5

tip - when reducing find the largest number that will go into the denominator (bottom digit) and divide the numerator and denominator (top digit) by that number.

Answer 3

12/20 = 3/5

Answer 4

12/20 = 3/5

Answer 5

20-8=12 so the fraction is 12 over 20 but if you
want to reduce it it's 3 over 5

Answer 6

12/20 but reduced to 3/5

Answer 7

12/20 because there is a total of 20 shirts. subtract 8 from twenty and that gives you the amount that is not green. which is 12.

8 + x =20
x= 12

12/20 shirts are not green

Answer 8

(12/20your answer) 8\20 x\20 then subtract 20 from 8 then there is your answer

8\20+x\20=20\20
x=12

Answer 9
