Answer:
1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
You forgot to add the fractions above. When Amelia started painting, the paint can had 7/8 gallon in it. She used 3/8 gallon. How much paint is left in the can?
So our problem is 7/8 - 3/8. Subtract the numerators since the denominator is the same. 4/8. But 4/8 can be simplified to 1/2.
So we have 1/2 a gallon left in the can.
