Isabelle bought 6/8 yd silver tinsel for a decoration. She used 2/3 yd. How much tinsel does she have left? Express your answer in simplest form.

Verified Answer :

6/8 and 2/3 have the common denominator of 24.
multiply 8 by 3
multiply 3 by 8
18/24 and 16/24 are your new fractions.
18/24 - 16/24= 2/24
simplify this by dividing by 2
1/12 yds is what Isabele had left.

1\12 is the answer because I did 6/8 from 2/3 so it gave me 1/12
