QuestionJamal is a decorator and uses the same amount of paint each day. He records what fraction of his paint is left at the end of each day. What fraction of his pain does he use each day?
Put a forward slash (/) between the numerator and denominator. Answer \begin{tabular}{|c|c|c|} \hline & end of day ill & 1214\frac{12}{14} \\ \hline paint & end of day 2 & 57\frac{5}{7} \\ \hline & end of day 3 & 1628\frac{16}{28} \\ \hline \end{tabular}

Studdy Solution
Since the amount of paint used each day is the same, the fraction of paint used each day is 214\frac{2}{14}.
Simplify 214\frac{2}{14}:
214=17 \frac{2}{14} = \frac{1}{7}
The fraction of paint Jamal uses each day is:
17 \boxed{\frac{1}{7}}
