There are 64 species of animals in the metropolitan zoo 5/8 are from North America
1/4 are from Africa
The remaining are from South America
How many species are from South America

8 species are from South America

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the answer to this, you need to make the denominators of the North American and African species the same.

To do this, multiply 1/4 x 2/2.

You would then get 2/8. This means 2/8 of the species are African

Since you now have the same denominator, add the fractions together, and the total amount of North American and African species is 7/8, leaving 1/8 for the South American species.

You would then divide 64 by 8 to see how much 1/8 is worth in terms of how many species, and would then get 8.
