sara wrote 3\[\frac{ 4 }{ 5 }\] in her jornal on monday and 2\[\frac{ 1 }{ 4 }\] on tuesday how much more did she write on monday than on tuesday? you don't give me exact awnsers ok

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

you mean: Sara wrote \(\large\color{black}{ \displaystyle 3\frac{ 4}{5} }\) in her jornal on monday and \(\large\color{black}{ \displaystyle 2\frac{ 1}{4} }\) on tuesday how much more did she write on monday than on tuesday?

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

1) Sorry for not immediate reply, I had to depart for a little. 2) I never intended to give direct answers, that is against the code of this site, and against my personal beliefs. 3) You are very good with codes on this site for a beginner!

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

you figure out how much more she wrote on Tuesday than on Monday, you would need to subtract what she wrote on Monday from what she wrote on Tuesday. like this: (Tuesday - Monday) \(\large\color{black}{ \displaystyle ( }\) except that instead of Monday and Tuesday, you are subtracting the numbers she wrote on these days).

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

just like if you had a problem: ``` Sam ate 37 apples on February 23th, and then ate 45 apples on February 24th. How much more apples did he eat on Feb 24th than on Feb 23 ? ``` Then you would subtract (like this) : `45 - 37`

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

and same here, EXCEPT 1) you have mixed numbers \(\large\color{black}{ \displaystyle ( }\)such as \(\large\color{black}{ \displaystyle 3\frac{ 4}{5} }\) \(\large\color{black}{ \displaystyle ) }\) 2) you have numbers that Sara wrote.

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

BUT THE ESSENCE of the problem IS THE SAME.

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

if you got question(s) plese please ask.
