Adana made key chains for her friends out of string. She started with 2 feet of red string, 3 feet of yellow string, and 5 feet of green string. If Adana used a total of 8.3 feet of string on the key chains, how much string remains unused?

To find the amount of string that remains unused, we need to subtract the total length of string used on the key chains from the total length of string Adana started with. Adana started with 2 feet of red string + 3 feet of yellow string + 5 feet of green string, which is a total of 10 feet of string. She used 8 3 feet of string on the key chains, so the amount of string that remains unused is 10 feet - 8 3 feet = 1 foot.

Answer:

2 1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

SOL Review question 4

Adana made key chains for her friends out of string. She started with 2 1/6 feet of red string, 3 1/4 of yellow string, and 5 1/2 feet of green string. If Adana used a total of 8 2/3 feed of string on the key chains, How much string remains unused.

It would be 2 1/4 because you convert all the factions denominators to 12. 2 1/6 becomes 2 2/12, 3 1/4 becomes 3 3/12, 5 1/2 becomes 5 6/12, and 6 2/3 becomes 8 8/12. add 2 2/12, 3 3/12, and 5 6/12 and you get 10 11/12 and then you subtract 10 11/12 and 8 8/12 (10 11/12 - 8 8/12) and get 2 3/12. when you get that answer, convert it by 3 and you get 2 1/4.
