sarah and her friends picked 3 3/4 pints of blueberries. after they ate some of the blueberries, only 2 1/3 pints remained. how many pints of blueberries did sarah and her friends eat? enter your answer in the box.
Ok, so we have 3 3/4 - 2 1/3. We have to make 3/4 and 1/3 equal so we can divide. So we are going to take the denominators, 3 and 4, and multiply them. 3/4 would equal 9/12 and 1/3 would equal 4/12. Now do 9/12 minus 4/12. That would equal ___. We also have the whole numbers which are 3 and 2. 3-2 equals 1. So the answer would be 1___.
