Basic Math: Lesson 6 - Introduction to Fractions
An informal introduction to why we need to learn about fractions.
Lesson 6 consists of providing you with a Self-Tutorial on all about fractions. This lesson is different from the previous ones in that the use of printed Notes is integrated with the Video (other Notes may be used independently of the videos). This lesson is VERY detailed and covers the necessary areas to help students review the many aspects of fractions and fraction conversions. I also show you how to perform all the many different fraction operations and conversions using the TI-84+ Graphing Calculator.

You are correct, …
You are correct, but they decided to round the answer to 17 cents. This is very typical for Multiple choice tests. Think about it… the city can’t get 16.5 cents from you, so it is automatically raised to 17.
