School Race (Solve single-step word problems involving addition and subtraction of fractions with equal denominators usi

The video tutorial explains how to solve a word problem involving fractions using a number line. It starts by introducing the problem of finding the remaining distance Sam needs to run in a race. The tutorial demonstrates how to represent distances on a number line and use it to visualize the problem. It then shows how to calculate the remaining distance by subtracting the distance Sam has already run from the total race distance, both using number lines and direct subtraction of improper fractions.
