Sammy's mother bought 2 1/2 pounds of blueberries on Monday. Sammy ate 1/4 of the blueberries before he went to bed. How many blueberries did Sammy eat on Monday?

Respuesta :

she ate 10 berries i hope this helps

Solve this problem by subtracting 1/4 from 2 1/2. 

2 1/2 - 1/4 = 2 2/8 = 2 1/4 pounds of blueberries left. 

Now subract how many are left from the original amount. 

2 1/2 - 2 1/4 = 2/8 = 1/4 lb. 

Your answer should be 1/4 lb.
