Question
The pharmacy technician helps with the annual inventory. If there were 126 boxes of computer labels at the beginning of the inventory period, and 28 5/6 remain, how many boxes of labels were used throughout the year
boxes of labels were used throughout the year.
(Simplify your answer. Type a whole number, proper fraction, or mixed number.)

Respuesta :

You’ll have to subtract here, and to make it easy on yourself, take the first number and change it to 125 and 6/6. That’s the same thing as 126 but it makes subtraction of the fraction easy.

Now. 125 6/6 - 28 5/6

You’ll get 97 and 1/6
