Shiva read 1/2 of a book in the morning, and she read some more at night. By the end of the day, she still had 1/3 of the book left to read. How much of the book did Shiva read at night?

Shiva had read 1/6 of the book that night.

1/2 + n = whole book - 1/3

1/2 + n = 1                   - 1/3 = 3/3 - 1/3

1/2 + n                                    =     2/3

The Lowest Common denominator of 2 and 3 is 6.  Change each fraction to 6ths.

1/2 = 3/6.   and 2/3 = 4/6

So 3/6 + n = 4/6

Subtract 3/6 from each side

3/6 + n - 3/6. = 4/6 - 3/6

          n.           = 1/6

Shiva had read 1/6 of the book that night.

1/6 of the book over night

Step-by-step explanation:

the smallest possible measurement of the width is 14 feet

step-by-step explanation:

let's assume length of parallelogram is 'l'

width of parallelogram is 'w'

the perimeter of a parallelogram must be no less than 40 feet

so, we get

we are given

length of parallelogram is 6 feet

so,

l=6

we can plug it

now, we can solve for w

subtract both sides by 12

divide both sides by 2

and we get

so,

the smallest possible measurement of the width is 14 feet
