- Yvonne was using feathers to make heru (hair combs) for her kapa haka groups. She uses three bags of feathers. She uses 7⁄8 of the first bag, 4/6 of the second bag and 2⁄3 of the third. What fraction of feathers does Yvonne have left?
2. Complete this table of the top NBA players and their teams overall
plus-minus rating when on and off the court.
1. Yvonne has 19/24 feathers left. I worked that out by turning it into 24th's
3 times 8 =24 1 times 3=3 so 3/24 then 6 times 4=24 4 times 2 =8 and that
is 8/24 8 times 3 = 24 8 times 1= 8 and boom 8/24. 3/24 + 8/24 + 8/24 = 19/24.
