\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( " He put 1-1/2 kilograms aside for eating and used the rest to bake apple pies.
\n" ); document.write( " How many kilograms of apples did he use for the pies?
\n" ); document.write( "7\"4%2F6\" - 1\"3%2F6\" = 6\"1%2F6\" kg for pies
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( " What percent of apples did he set aside for eating?
\n" ); document.write( "change 7\"4%2F6\" to decimal: 7.6667 kg
