Need help with adding subtracting decimals.. . In this unit, you learned about fractions that can be written as terminating decimals and fractions that can be written as nonterminating decimals. Create an addition word problem and a subtraction word problem using fractions. Show how to find the solution to each problem. Once you find the solutions to your problems, rewrite the solutions as either a terminating or nonterminating decimal.

Verified Answer :

 1. Jason and Hance bought
a large pizza to eat. Jason ate 5/8 of the pizza. What’s the fraction of the
pizza that was left for Hance? 



8/8 - 5/8 = 3/8 



Hance ate 3/8 of the pizza which = .375 which is a
terminating decimal. 


  1. Yvonne has 1/6 cup of walnuts and 1/6 cup of

dried cherries. How many cups of both does she have? 

1/6 + 1/6 = 2/6 = 1/3

1/3 is equal to .33333, this is an example of a
nonterminating decimal because it never ends. I am hoping that these
answers have satisfied your queries and it will be able to help you, and if
you’d like, feel free to ask another question.
