Sue juiced oranges from her orange trees. From the first two trees she collected 2/6 gallon of juice from each tree. The last tree yielded 2/3 gallon. After using some of the juice she collected for breakfast, Sue found that she only had 3/4 gallon of juice left. How much juice did she use for breakfast?

Step-by-step explanation:

She collected 2/6 gallon of orange juice from two trees and 2/3 from the last tree.  To add these two fractions, both must have common denominators.

Multiply both the numerator and denominator of 2/3 by 2.  This results in 4/6.

Now you have 4/6 + 2/6 which equals 8/6.  This can be converted to 1 and 2/6, further simplified to 1 and 1/3.  Therefore, Sue collected a total of 1 and 1/3 gallons of orange juice.

y < -3

step-by-step explanation:

-3y - 2 > 7

-3y -2 + 2 > 7+2

-3y > 9

-3y/-3 < 9/-3   (change the inequality sign when multiplying or dividing by a negative number)

y < -3
