Garret has a bag that contains cubic 2 7/16 feet of mulch. If he uses 8/9 of the bag in his garden how much mulch is left in the bag?

0.27 cubic feet of mulch is remaining

Step-by-step explanation:

Quantity in the bag = 2 7/16 cubic feet of mulch

Quantity used = 8/9 of the bag in his garden

Mulch used = 8/9 of 2 7/16

= 8/9 × 39/16

= 1/9 × 39/2

= 39/18

= 2 3/8 used

Total mulch left = Total mulch in the bag - mulch used

= 2 7/16 - 2 3/8

= 39/16 - 39/18

= 702-624/288

= 78/288

= 0.27 cubic feet of mulch is remaining
