Grant has 2 over 3 cup of ice cream in a bowl. He then removes two 1 over 6 cups of ice cream to share with his little brother. Which of the following best explains the amount of ice cream left in Grant's bowl?
2 over 6, because 2 over 3 minus 2 times 1 over 6 equals 2 over 3 minus 3 over 6

2 over 6, because 2 over 3 minus 2 times 1 over 6 equals 2 over 3 minus 2 over 6

1 over 6, because 2 over 3 minus 2 times 1 over 6 equals 2 over 3 minus 3 over 6

1 over 6, because 2 over 3 minus 2 times 1 over 6 equals 2 over 3 minus 2 over 6

It would be the second answer. He starts with 2/3 cup, then take out 2 1/6 cup amounts, which make 2/6 cup. Since he's taking it out, you would subtract it from the original value. So you would get 2/3 cup minus 2/6 cup and to make the denominators equal you would multiply 2/3 cup by 2, so you would have 4/6 cup minus 2/6 cup which equals 2/6 cup.

Answer:

the second one

2 over 6, because 2 over 3 minus 2 times 1 over 6 equals 2 over 3 minus 2 over 6
