Help in fraction please?


Luke is watching his blue chip stock. On Monday it was up 3/8. On Tuesday it was down 1/4. On Wednesday it was up 1/2. What is the net change of one share of his stock after these three days?

-1/2
-3/8
3/8
5/8

5/8

Change the denominator to 8
3/8-2/8= 1/8 then add 4/8 which gives you 5/8

5\8

5/8

And yes, I am watching my blue chip stocks.

The answer is the difference of the different changes. Your textbook should have a formula to help you figure it out.
