Question

Max is making trail mix. He combines 2/5 pound of dried fruit and 1/3 pound if mixed nuts. He adds sunflower seeds to make a total of 1 pound. What is the weight of the seeds?
Ms. Sue
0.4 + 0.333 = 0.7333

1 - 0.7333 = 0.2667 pound
Can u tell me the answer. max is making trail mix he combines 2/5 pound of dried fruit and 1/3 pound of nuts add sunflower seed to make a total of 1 pound what is the weight of the sunflower seeds
try your best.
I think it is subtracting
15 is the LCD so if you do 2x3= 6 and 1x5=5 and then 6+5=11
so 15/15-11/15=4
so the answer is 4/15
