henry has a pot with 6 3/10 liters of water he pours 3 1/5 liters of water how many liters of water remain in the pot

Answer 1

To find the remaining amount of water, we need to subtract the amount poured from the original amount.

6 3/10 liters - 3 1/5 liters

First, convert the mixed numbers to improper fractions:
6 3/10 = 63/10
3 1/5 = 16/5

Now subtract the fractions:
63/10 - 16/5

To subtract fractions, they need a common denominator. The least common multiple of 10 and 5 is 10, so we can rewrite the fractions using a denominator of 10:
63/10 - 16/5 = 63/10 - 32/10

Now subtract the numerators:
63 - 32 = 31

The remaining amount of water is 31/10 liters.

We can also simplify the fraction:
31/10 = 3 1/10 liters

Therefore, there are 3 1/10 liters of water remaining in the pot.
