Answers
1/5 + 3/10 + 1/3 = 6/30 + 9/30 + 10/30 = 25/30 = 5/6
so, 5/6 are covered with the other stuff, leaving 1/6 for sprinkles.
1/6 * 120 = 20
so, 5/6 are covered with the other stuff, leaving 1/6 for sprinkles.
1/6 * 120 = 20
30 looks like a good common denominator
6/30 + 9/30 + 10/30 = 25/30
30/30 - 25/30 = 5/30
(5/30) * 120 = ?
6/30 + 9/30 + 10/30 = 25/30
30/30 - 25/30 = 5/30
(5/30) * 120 = ?
