A loaf of bread is cut into slices of equal size. Some of the loaf is used in a recipe and 2/12 of the loaf is used to make a sandwich. The remaining 7/12 of the loaf is put into the refrigerator. Write and solve an equation to find the fraction of the loaf of bread that is used in the recipe.

Respuesta :

The answer would be 3/12 was used on the recipe. If 3/12 was used on the recipe and we know 2/12 was used to make a sandwich, 3/12 + 2/12 =5/12 used and that holds true being as there is 7/12 of the loaf left. 12/12 - 5/12 = 7/12
