A bag of trail mix contains 9 servings. Each of the servings is 1/4 of a cup. Monica poured 5/8 of the bag into a container for work what is the amount of trail mix left in the bag? please show your work to help me understand thank you!
First, you do 1/4 • 9 to find the total amount that is in the bag, which is 2 1/4 cups. Then, you do 2 1/4 - 5/8 to find out how much is left in the bag. There is 1 5/8 cups of trail mix left in the bag.
