Answer:
C.
Step-by-step explanation:
first: Find the LCD which is 12
10 3/12 + 15 6/12 + 22 10/12= 3+6+10= 19/12 which is also 1 7/12
just add the whole numbers 10+15+22= 47 + 1 7/12= 48 7/12 ounces of water
now that you know how much water carol drank, you just need to sbtract it to 64
64 - 48 7/12
64/1 - 48 7/12 find the LCD and turn 48 7/12 into improper fraction
768/12- 583/12= 763-583/12
185/12= 15 5/12
the amount left carol have to drink is 15 5/12
