Q. The chef of a pizza place used 183418\frac{3}{4} packages of pepperoni and 9149\frac{1}{4} packages of sausage. How much more pepperoni than sausage did the chef use?\newlineWrite your answer as a fraction or as a whole or mixed number.\newline____\_\_\_\_ packages
  1. Convert to Improper Fractions: Step 11: Convert mixed numbers to improper fractions for easier calculation. \newline183418 \frac{3}{4} packages of pepperoni becomes (18×4+3)/4=754(18\times 4 + 3)/4 = \frac{75}{4} packages.\newline9149 \frac{1}{4} packages of sausage becomes (9×4+1)/4=374(9\times 4 + 1)/4 = \frac{37}{4} packages.
  2. Subtract to Find Difference: Step 22: Subtract the amount of sausage packages from the amount of pepperoni packages to find the difference. 754−374=384=912\frac{75}{4} - \frac{37}{4} = \frac{38}{4} = 9 \frac{1}{2} packages.
