1 Carlos downloaded a movle to his tablet computer. He watched \( \frac{7}{12} \) of the movie last night. He will watch the rest tonight. Which is closest to the fraction of the movie he will watch tonight?

Carlos watched \( \frac{7}{12} \) of the movie last night. To find out what fraction of the movie he will watch tonight, we can subtract the fraction he has already watched from the whole movie. The whole movie can be represented as \( 1 = \frac{12}{12} \). So, he still needs to watch: \[ \frac{12}{12} - \frac{7}{12} = \frac{5}{12} \] Therefore, the fraction of the movie he will watch tonight is closest to \( \frac{5}{12} \). Now, imagine Carlos as a movie critic, dissecting what he’s seen. He might even rate the first half of the film based on what he’s watched, saving the final verdict for after tonight’s viewing. Movie marathons have never been more strategic!
