To find the amount of fencing they would need to purchase, subtract the amount of fencing they already have (3/4 of a mile) from the total distance around the property (1 1/2 of a mile).
1 1/2 - 3/4 = 3/2 - 3/4 = 6/4 - 3/4 = 3/4 of a mile
Therefore, they would need to purchase 3/4 of a mile more of fencing.
Your city wants to replace a fence around the city baseball field property, including the parking lot. The city learns that the total distance around the property is 1 1/2 of a mile. They already have enough fencing to cover 3/4 of a mile. How much more distance of fencing would they need to purchase?(1 point)

To find the total votes for the two people, you need to add the number of votes the first person received to the number of votes the second person received.
13 + 215 = 228
Therefore, the total votes for the two people is 228.
13 + 215 = 228
Therefore, the total votes for the two people is 228.

To find the total votes for the two people, you need to add the number of votes the first person received to the number of votes the second person received.
1/3 + 2/15 = 5/15 + 2/15 = 7/15
Therefore, the total votes for the two people is 7/15.
1/3 + 2/15 = 5/15 + 2/15 = 7/15
Therefore, the total votes for the two people is 7/15.

To find the fractional portion of cookies that Skyler still needs to decorate, subtract the number of cookies he has already decorated (14) from the total number of cookies he made (23).
23 - 14 = 9
Therefore, Skyler still needs to decorate 9 cookies.
The fractional portion remaining can be expressed as a fraction by taking the remaining number of cookies (9) and dividing it by the total number of cookies made (23).
9/23
Therefore, the fractional portion remaining that Skyler still needs to decorate is 9/23.
23 - 14 = 9
Therefore, Skyler still needs to decorate 9 cookies.
The fractional portion remaining can be expressed as a fraction by taking the remaining number of cookies (9) and dividing it by the total number of cookies made (23).
9/23
Therefore, the fractional portion remaining that Skyler still needs to decorate is 9/23.
