Two lions, Fluffy and Fireball, met at the zoo. Fluffy's tail is 1 1/3 of a meter long. Fireball's tail is 1 1/4 of a meter long. How much longer is Fluffy's tail than Fireball's tail?

11 / 12 m

Step-by-step explanation:

11/3 - 11/4

LCM = 4*3=12

11/3 * 4/4 = 44/12

11/4 * 3/3 = 33/12

11/3 - 11/4

44/12-33/12 = 11/12

1/12

Step-by-step explanation:

First, simply convert the fractions into an improper fraction.

1 1/3 = 4/3

1 1/4 = 5/4

Then make conevrt it so the denominator is the same. In this case, the denominatorwould be 12.

4/3 = 16/12

5/4 = 15/12

Finally subtract regularly.

16/12-15/12 = 1/12
