Question: 1 / 400

If six out of thirteen trick-or-treaters were dressed as knights, what is the fraction of those not dressed as knights?

7/13

To find the fraction of trick-or-treaters not dressed as knights, start by determining how many trick-or-treaters were not dressed as knights. If six out of thirteen were knights, you can find the number not dressed as knights by subtracting the number of knights from the total number of trick-or-treaters.

So, the calculation would be:

Total trick-or-treaters: 13

Knights: 6

Not dressed as knights = Total trick-or-treaters - Knights

Not dressed as knights = 13 - 6 = 7

Now, to express this as a fraction of the total number of trick-or-treaters, you put the number not dressed as knights over the total:

Fraction not dressed as knights = 7/13.

This fraction clearly represents those who were not knights out of the total group. Thus, the correct answer is indicated by this reasoning.
