If you erased 1/4 of the shaded part below, how much of the original figure will be shaded?

Answer:
[tex]\frac{5}{12}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]\frac{2}{3} -\frac{1}{4}[/tex]
Find the least common denominator (LCD).
[tex]\frac{2 * 4 }{3*4} - \frac{1*3}{4*3}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{8}{12} - \frac{3}{12}[/tex]
Substract.
[tex]\frac{8-3}{12}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{5}{12}[/tex]
Hence, [tex]\frac{5}{12}[/tex] of the original figure will be shaded.
