How can i get 20/24 with this numbers 3/6 ,1/4 ,1/3

Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

  3/6 + 0*(1/4) + 1/3   = 20/24

Discussion:

My first thought was to convert all the number to use a denominator of 24:

3/6 = 12/24    (*)

1/4  = 6/24

1/3 =  8/24      (**)

Note that the sum of (*) and (**) gives 20/24:

3/6 + 1/3 = 12/24 + 8/24  = 20/24.

which is what we want. So what do we do about the 1/4 term?  Hmmm... Let's multiply it by zero! Your teacher may not like this  but the problem statement doesn't exclude it. Consider this:

3/6 + 0*(1/4) + 1/3   = 20/24

Thank you,

step-by-step explanation:

ok one would be money, and the other would be refreshments or something similar. if each bag of popcorn is 5.00 and each drink is half of that that means drinks are 2.50 the proper way to do that would to look and see how much of each you can buy without exceeding a limit of 30.00
