You can put this solution on YOUR website! Jason started reading a book with 450 pages.
He finished reading 300 pages.
In its simplest form, what fraction of the book is left unread.
:
Find how many pages left for him to read;
450-300 = 150 pages unread
then , we can reduce this fraction, divide numerator and denominator by 150, results: of the book unread
