  3. Subtract, trading a whole first when the fraction part is too small:
    8\dfrac{5}{6} - 3\dfrac{1}{6}6\dfrac{2}{5} - 2\dfrac{4}{5}9\dfrac{1}{4} - 4\dfrac{2}{4}10 - 6\dfrac{3}{10}13\dfrac{2}{12} - 5\dfrac{7}{12}
  4. Word problem: how much maple syrup did the family make in all and how much more on Saturday?
