"If I eat the whole bar plus
3/4 of a bar, plus another half, I'd definitely eat more
than two bars," said
Mayor 1. "That's right," replied 4/6. "Now you are on the right track. Let's get the exact amount." "Well, like all citizens of Fractionville I would use a fraction calculator to find out," replied Mayor 1. "So, let's try it," said 4/6. “Here’s a fraction calculator. Ok. First I would add all the fractional parts: 1/2, 1/8 and 3/4. Since the calculator can only take 2 fractions at a time, I'll do 1/2 plus 1/8. That gives me 5/8. Then 5/8 and 3/4 (cost of fries) gives me 11/8." "Finally you add the whole which gives you a total of $2 3/8," added 4/6. |
