    Answer: 5/12 of the practice time was spent playing music.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    On Friday 1/8 of band practice was spent trying on uniforms. The band spent 1/6 of practice on marching. It means that the total practice time spent on trying on uniforms and marching is

    1/8 + 1/6 = (3 + 4) / 24 = 7/24

    The remaining practice time has been playing music. It means that the fraction of the practice spent in playing music is

    1 - 7/12 = 5/12

    2/3 of band practice was spent playing music.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    First find the common denominator.

    6 times 4 is 24

    8 times 3 is 24

    multiply the numerators by the same value as the denominator (for 1/8 both the 1 and the 8 would be multiplied by 3, and for 1/6 both the 1 and the six would be multiplied by 4)

    4/24 + 3/24

    next the questions is asking for the remaining practice time.

    add numerators when the denominators are the same.

    4 + 3 = 7

    = 7/24

    24/24 - 7/24 = 16/24

    (24 - 7 = 16)

    now divide both the numerator and denominator by the same number.

    16 : 8 = 2

    24 : 8 = 3

    The answer would be that 2/3 of band practice was spent playing music.
