Asked by Matt
Liam has 8 3/4 gallons of paint. He wants to use 2/5 of the paint to paint his living room. How many gallons of paint will Liam use?
I think that I would need to take 8 3/4 - 2/5=8 7/20
Can you tell me if I got this answer right or wrong and if I got it wrong how would I go about solving this problem?
Thank you
